Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

Erected on behalf of the Elks B.P.O.E. No. 121, Vulcan Lodge, this memorial is dedicated to the local war dead of the Second World War. In addition to the description, the memorial depicts images of a small warship, a tank and a fighter aircraft.
