Over 14,000 soldiers assaulted
Juno Beach in Normandy, France
and thousands more were in

Many would never come back home.

Remembrance Gardens Memorial Park was created by the Remember November 11 Association and dedicated on 29 August 2015. It was built as a living memorial to the sacrifices made by Canada's military and their families. Additions to the park were made possible from generous donations from Fisher Landscape, Triple H Concrete, Blue Con Construction, Heeman’s Nursery, Blue Jay Irrigation and Hunter Industries, plus many other companies and donations. The stone carving was contributed by Custom Rock Creations.

The main garden is in the shape of a poppy surrounded by crushed white marble. The black and white paving stones pathways through the poppy are two feet wide and almost 100 feet long. They are edged with red mulch to help define the shape. Hundreds of poppy plants are located in the garden.

These memorials are located within the park:
Vimy Ridge Memorial Garden
Royal Canadian Air Force Memorial
Royal Canadian Navy Memorial

Peacekeeper Day Memorial
Canadian Army Veterans Motorcycle Units Memorial
