Members of the 859 Crowsnest Squadron Air Cadets (which included Pincher Creek members) will be conducting a door to door poppy drive on Saturday, November 9 along with members of 4H and Girl Guides. 

Members of the 2309 Fort Macleod Army Cadets (which also includes Pincher Creek members) did a poppy drive earlier in the week in Fort Macleod. The cadets do this to raise awareness, and to make it possible for everyone to celebrate Remembrance Day, whether they can attend a formal ceremony or not.
