Acts of Remembrance - Harrogate
http://www.harrogateband.org/111113s.jpg We will be taking part in two acts of Remembrance.
Harrogate Cenotaph: 10:15am - We will be marching with the Tewit Youth Band in the parade and playing music at the cenotaph for the civic act of Remembrance.
Stonefall Cemetery: 12:15pm - We will be taking part in the ceremony hosted by the Rotary Club at the Commonwealth War Graves Cemetery which has 1010 servicemen who were mainly airmen.
It's a very calm, reflective and peaceful place. Looking at the row upon row of graves makes you think and reflect on the sacrifice people made for peace in Europe, especially those who weren't even from these isles. |
