Bothwell meeting ‘a form of trespassing’ say trustees
Remembering Vimy in Wyoming
November 18, 2017
Derek Sipkens, 3, and his dad, Brian, planted a memorial tree near Wyoming’s cenotaph recently. The tree is a direct offspring of a tree planted from acorns collected by a Canadian soldier while serving in France. They were later planted at his home farm in Scarborough. The tree was donated by the Town of Plympton-Wyoming and Sipkens Nurseries. A memorial plaque will be installed in the future.
