Fallen Heroes Memorial Walkway

The Fallen Heroes Memorial Walkway project allows us to better commemorate their sacrifice and beautify the museum grounds. The Museum is a vital component of our Main Street and by enhancing our municipal facilities, we enhance the perception and viability of the Raymond commercial district! The project includes redeveloping the Museum grounds. Black wrought iron fences will wrap around the perimeter and LED lighting will be strategically placed to highlight the individual veterans monuments, the Wall of Honour which will list the names of all of Raymond’s daughters and sons who have and are currently serving in the armed forces and our own “Tomb of the Unknown Soldier” where poppies can be placed to remember those who now live in Raymond but had relatives serve from other parts of Canada. Four lite flag poles flying the Canadian Flag, the Canadian Red Ensign, as well as the Alberta and Raymond flags. Irrigation will be installed along with new sod, decorative rock or chips, plants and shrubs will be placed around each monument along the walkway, a gazeebo with benches and picnic tables will be located in the “Serenity Garden” behind the museum along with a water feature of some kind.
