BURLINGTON, ON
At sunset on Sunday, November 11, the City of Burlington will join other local organizations, including veteran groups and churches, to mark 100 years since the World War I armistice with the ringing of 100 bells.
At 4:59 p.m. on Nov. 11, the city’s clock tower will play bells 100 times at five-second intervals – one to mark each year.
One hundred years ago, on Nov. 11, 1918, news of the end of fighting in the First World War travelled through Europe with the chime of church bells ringing out in celebration.

Join us at St. Matthews Church, 126 Plains Rd. E. , Burlington,
at 5:45 PM, Sunday Nov. 11th on our west side patio to listen
to our 126 year old Church Bell commemorate our thanks to
our Veterans. You will have the opportunity to also put a
Canada Flag around the Bell or the 7′ Poppy Cross on our
front lawn..
All welcome, please join us.
