The new Memory Garden is located on the north side of the Fort 91原创 Community Hall property and its creation was financed by a Celebration and Commemoration Program grant by Heritage Canada.

鈥淭he project honours our past, present, and future volunteers and supports the local community, providing a new space to gather and reflect and increases opportunities for Canadians to celebrate, building a sense of pride and belonging to Fort 91原创 and Canada,鈥� said Seib.

The gardens was designed by a Fort 91原创 firm, VanderZalm Landscape Architect, and constructed by 91原创鈥檚 Cedar Crest Lands Ltd.

It features a bubbler, pond, West Coast planting, and carriage house benches where people can sit and enjoy the space.

Plans for a performance gazebo are in the works when further funding permits, said Seib. But on Saturday, there will be a tent erected to mark the spot and to provide some shelter from the weather.

The Fort 91原创 Community Improvement Society was established in 1924 and in 1925, the society bought the property from the municipality for the back taxes. In 1931, the new hall was completed entirely by volunteers.

The society has been taking care of the historic hall ever since.
