WAVERLEY: It may have been damp and Mother Nature provided a mixture of weather starting as sprinkles then rain and before one knew the sun shone through as hundreds gathered at the Waverley Legion for the Remembrance Day service.
The service saw RCMP veterans and retired members along with some Legion members do the traditional march in as the crowd awaited the start of the service shortly before 11 a.m.
At the service there was special guest providing entertainment to those at the Waverley Legion. They were the Canadian Military Wives Choir, who started the ceremony off with O Canada and capped it off with God Save The King.
Clan Farquharson stopped by to get the crowd going for a short time.
Tammy Adams also provided afternoon entertainment for the crowd that remained at the Legion.

In between there was the traditional Remembrance Day service music and then plenty of wreaths laid by local residents in memory of loved ones or businesses in honour of all who served.
At the end of the ceremony most if not all who were there took their poppy off and placed it on a wreath that had been laid at the cenotaph.
MLA and Advanced Education Minister Brian Wong and Councillor Cathy Deagle-Gammon laid wreaths at the Windsor Junction ceremony.
MP Darrell Samson attended the service in Beaver Bank, before stopping by the Waverley Legion reception.
