Other

This plaque was first placed above the main entrance of Whonnock Memorial Hall in 1921, in memory of those from the Whonnock district who fell in the First World War. After the hall was demolished, the plaque remained on the same property, but was placed on a concrete cairn. It was then moved in 1988 to its current location at the Whonnock Lake Centre.

Next to this plaque is the Whonnock Second World War and Korean War Plaque.
