Victorious Canadians celebrating after fighting on Vimy Ridge in 1917. About 50 people from Huron County are
traveling there by plane to honour the 100th anniversary.
Huron County residents head to
Vimy Ridge for 1001h anniversary
Shaun Gregory

The epic battle of Vimy Ridge
is considered to be Canada's
• most celebrated military victo-
ries, and a crew of about 50 his-
tory enthusiasts are flying to this
hallowed ground to memorial-
, ize the 100th anniversary of this
combat.
A Seaforth Public High School
alumnus and now a South
Huron District High School his-
tory teacher Tracy McLennan
said that this trip has been in the
making since 2007 when she
travelled to the First World War
site in France for the then 90th
anniversary. -
A decade later, the excursion
welcomes the oldest being
85 -years' strong and McLen-
nan's daughter, who will earn
the titLQas the youngest at 11
years of age, along with an
RCMP officer from London
whose grandfather endured the
Vimy battle. As well, Maureen
Cole, the mayor of South Huron,
is joining the trip expected to go
from April 6-16.
While the journey is antici-
pated to focus on a visit to the
cemetery of thousands upon
thousand of graves (several with
no names attached), McLennan,
who is one of the organizers,
said they would be wandering to
numerous other countries too.
"They are having fun, but
focusing on traveling to places
that played a significant role in
liberating Northwest Europe in
WWII and some of the stuff we
did in WWI as well," McLennan
said Jan. 20.
From visiting the city of Ghent
in Belgium to the Dieppe Raid
where 900 Canadian soldiers
were slayed; and riding a ferry to
England to view the War
Museum, McLennan is certain
this will be a voyage the travelers
will not forget.
CBC is covering the event
that's believed to include 30,000
Canadians and McLennan is
bringing wreaths and flags to be
left behind "on behalf of Huron
County," with the chances fam-
ily and friends might catch a
glimpse on television, she said.
"Hopefully
people will recognize that this is
to celebrate our small County,"
she said. "We've been there all
along from the Rebellions of
1837, to the Afghanistan war,
young men and women from
this area always managed to
take up the call to arms."
Seeing as the cost of the mem-
orabilia they're leaving behind
has a price tag and all of the par-
ticipants are paying their share
-- $4,000 for the trip -- they are
conducting a fundraising event
to help cover these costs. Titled
The Huron Remembers Vimy
Variety Show, hosted by the Exe-
ter United Church, it will have
numerous activities as well as
live music. The theme of the
music will be reminiscent of the
war times.
Doors open Feb. 11 at 12:30
p.m., and tickets are $12 for
adults and $10 for students, sen-
iors, and veterans. The show is
expected to last about two to
two and a half hours.
Tickets are available at RE.

School at 519-235-0880.
