“Dog Guides Change Lives”
Come and meet a group of puppies who are being fostered for their first year of life, before going off to "university" to become qualified dog guides with the Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides.
Rev. Susan Sheen, and a few friends who are involved in the Lions Foundation Foster Puppy Program are coming with their foster puppies, both labs and poodles. They will tell us all about the program, the dogs and the difference that these dogs are going to make for people with disabilities right across Canada. There will also be an opportunity to interact with the puppies after the presentation!
Note: Please do not approach the puppies as they arrive before the

want to miss! For more info: www.dogguides.com

"Although the vast majority of cenotaphs honour individuals, many noted cenotaphs are also dedicated to the memories of groups of individuals, such as the lost soldiers of a country or of an empire. "
Cenotaphs are an important reminder of our commitment to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice in order for us to enjoy the freedoms we enjoy today.
