Notice:
The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.
In 2019, the Armoury had two quilts commissioned by the Prince Edward County Barnyard Quilt Trails. The Strong and FREEdom quilt represents the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiments, locally known as the Hasty P's. The Regimental Colours of royal blue and orange encircle a white poppy, a symbol of peace.
The other barn quilt is Like a Rolling KeySTONE.
