About
Us
The Warriors'
Day Parade Council, established in 1921, is an entirely volunteer
based organization, responsible
for the overall planning, promotion and execution
of The Warriors' Day
Parade. The Council is comprised of dedicated women and
men with military
backgounds as well as individuals with experience in organization, planning
and marketing. As one Parade ends, planning begins almost immediately
for the next year's Parade.
Meeting year-round,
The Warriors' Day Parade Council with the support of dozens of other
volunteers deals with the many complex details required to ensure a
successful event.
Our Crest
In the mid-1990s, The Warriors' Day Parade Council adopted a crest (shown above) to be worn on their distinctive green blazers. The crest is surmounted by the Imperial Crown that was worn by His Majesty King George V when the Council was established in 1921. The centre piece of the crest is a stylized rendering of the Princes' Gates depicting both our loyalty to the Royal Family and our close association with the CNE. The flags surmounting the gates are the Union Jack and the Canadian Flag Ensign. These two flags are emblematic of those standards in use during our formative years as a Council, and also those under which many of our members served "King and Country."
