Loverna was founded in 1913. Like near every other small community in the province, it sprang to life with the coming of the railway. The Loverna Legion Branch 91 was formed in the spring and summer of 1946. The Loverna Legion Branch No. 91 was presented with its charter on August 20, 1946. Over the years, the Loverna Legion has taken an active part in the Loverna Community by helping maintain the Loverna Cenotaph.

Between Grace United and All Saint’s Anglican on Main Street, the Loverna Cenotaph honours those who fought and died for our freedoms. 

To the glory of God and in loving memory of these men of Loverna district who fell in the Great War.

Their names live forevermore

This memorial is dedicated to the North-West Rebellion, the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War. It was erected by the Royal Canadian Legion and the town of Battleford.

The Royal Canadian Legion Battleford Legion Branch #9 had an unveiling of plaques and re-dedication of the cenotaph in Battleford Aug. 24, 2019.  Taking place at Cenotaph Park, across from 192 24th Street West, four plaques were unveiled, along with the rededication of the cenotaph originally erected in 1923. The rededication ceremony comes after recent upgrades to the cairn and surrounding area.

William Dillon Otter was born at Clinton, Ontario on 3 Dec 1843. He was a Veteran of the Battle of Ridgeway in 1866 and joined the permanent force in 1883. He commanded the Battleford column in the Northwest Resistance and was the first commanding officer of the Royal Canadian Regiment of Infantry in 1893.

In 1899, Otter led the first Canadian contingent in the South African War. In 1908, he was the first Canadian-born chief of the general staff and was inspector general of the Canadian Militia 1910-12, when he retired. He commanded internment operations during the First World War. Otter was knighted in 1913 and in 1922 became the second Canadian soldier, after Sir Arthur Currie, to reach the rank of general.

Within the park are several rifle pits that were fixed up to show defensive positions taken during the Northwest Resistance.
