Due to the forecast of 80-100% chance of thunderstorms all day tomorrow, the Legion in Welland has decided to cancel the Remembrance Day Parade that was scheduled to take place at 1:45PM at the Cenotaph .

The Remembrance Day Service at 10:45am at the Legion on Saturday (November 11th) has NOT been cancelled, and is still scheduled to take place. Likely it will not be cancelled but instead moved indoors if it is storming out again.
