In previous years, the crosses had been placed by the Guiding Clubs. When this was not an option for this year, the Sunday School students stepped up to help the Lucknow Poppy Committee perform this task. Before placing the crosses, the children visited the Legion Branch 309 to see the displays of the wartime arti- facts, photos, uniforms and other items on display. Each cross is a memorial that bears the name of a local veteran who has passed away. The Poppy Committee makes it more special for the children who help by taking the time to try to match the memorial crosses to the child who would have the closest con- nection to that veteran, when possible. -____ ram 1 _itom. - ., __,.. , 7, ..r iiii]Nt 'Tis the Season Christmas Bazaars Begin Long Service Award Square Dancers Honoured get Iucknowsentinel.com Get all of your news, sports and more.
