The Royal Canadian Legion National Poppy Campaign is underway, including locally.

Poppy boxes are set up and volunteers, including local cadets, will be out in the community tomorrow (Saturday) handing out poppies.

Funds donated across the country during the Poppy Campaign support Veterans and their families locally.

Last year close to $17 million went back into communities across Canada.

November 11th marks the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I.
