Maple Grove High School War Memorial

Erected by the Maple Grove High School Memorial Club, in memory of the Canadian men and women who died while serving in Afghanistan, this memorial was unveiled May 8, 2009 on the grounds of Maple Grove Education Centre in Hebron, near Yarmouth. Honouring our fallen heroes - Yarmouth students raised funds for this Afghanistan memorial beside school. More than 120 names, starting with Pte Nathan Smith, who died in a "friendly fire" incident in April 2002, have been etched into the face of four of the six black granite slabs standing in a single rank. Names of the fallen will continue to be added periodically.
