On Easter Monday, April 9, 1917, 100,000 Canadian soldiers stormed and captured Vimy Ridge in France. It was one of the great Victories of the First World War. Introduced to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge, the Vimy commemorative pin is formed from a cast alloy on which the three dimensional high relief design has been finished with a unique painted enamel to resemble the Vimy Monument. Each pin comes attractively presented on a decorative descriptive card.

"If you are interested in local history, stop in at the cadet camp museum. It's small, but so interesting! They have done a great job with their displays, including personal memorabilia that will appeal to people who actually went to camp, and thematic displays that will appeal to history buffs. When we were there they had a display on food rations and one on head gear through the years, as well as the results of an 'archeological dig' that occurred when they updated some of the barracks and discovered several decades' worth of trinkets in the ground below! This is the only cadet museum in Canada and we really enjoyed ourselves."
