Join us for the Major David Peabody Memorial Walk & Ruck as we honour the life and legacy of Major David Peabody, former director of The Military Museums, who died in December 2024. This event both commemorates his life and achievements as a soldier, leader, and historical education advocate. It will offer both civilian and military personnel an opportunity to take part in rucking (or walking without weight) within the grounds of The Military Museums in a 1-km loop while enjoying the sights of historical military vehicles, artifacts, and good company. 

Southern Alberta Cadets and the Rocky Mountain Civil Air Patrol Cadets, honour the Fallen, their Memorial Cross and Gold Star families, by presenting Christmas Wreaths to each family and staying with them for the day. As an organization, we have taught youth in both countries for 17 years now why Remembrance Day has a face, and we will remember them.
