The Brooklin Legion unveiled a new cenotaph on September 30, 2019 honouring the men and women of Brooklin and surrounding area who served in Canada's conflicts and especially to those who made the ultimate sacrifice. It took the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 152 about two years to raise the $75,000 needed for the granite cenotaph. The Brooklin Legion traditionally held its annual Remembrance Day ceremony outside Luther Vipond Memorial Arena. But with changes expected because of the expansion of Highway 7, the cenotaph was erected at the Brooklin Community Centre and Library, which is within marching distance of the Legion. The Brooklin Legion will hold it’s first Remembrance Day ceremony at the new cenotaph in November 2019.
