Student intake for the expanded 2025 Trail of the Caribou Commemorations program will begin this week through the Historic Sites Association. The Program supports junior and senior high students’ travel to Northern France and Belgium to attend remembrance ceremonies at the five caribou monuments, as well as the July 1 ceremony at the Beaumont-Hamel Memorial. Following the repatriation of Newfoundland and Labrador’s unknown soldier in May, Premier Andrew Furey announced the program would increase from 30 to 100 students annually. He says “many of the young men and women who traveled overseas for the First World War were not much older than those who participate in this program – certainly something that will evoke much thought and emotion.”
