Event Description

This event is held by the Fort Erie Museum and Cultural Heritage Advisory Committee annually to recognize the Canadian militia members killed at the Battle of Ridgeway in 1866.  We read the nine names.  We have a prayer and a reading. We lay a wreath at the Cairn at Battlefield Park.  Members of the public can bring fresh flowers to lay at the cairn as well if they choose.
