CARLYLE - The Carlyle branch of the Royal Canadian Legion held a Remembrance Day service at the Carlyle Elementary School gymnasium.

Marching of the colours started the service and then two minutes of silence were observed and reveille was performed by Jesse Twietmeyer. A scripture reading  and Lord’s Prayer were delivered by Pastor Matt Redstone.

Wreaths were laid and then an offering was taken in support of the Carlyle legion for support of local projects.

Picking up of the colours followed.

Following the service, the colour party reformed at the cenotaph for a short service. Three wreaths were laid, one for First and Second World War veterans, another for all veterans who returned from the wars, and a third for United Nations and North Atlantic Treaty Organization members.
