Sandy Cove Acres
Location: Innisfil, Simcoe County N 44 21.046 W 079 33.472
In front of the Community Centre, on Weeping Willow Drive, south of Lockhart Road.
Sandy Cove acres is a retirement community, and as such is residence to several veterans of World War II and Korea. Beginning in 1982, a group of these veterans began assembling the memorial we see now. A vintage field gun from the First World War was acquired, and two stone markers were erected along with a beautifully landscaped garden.
Marker text:
W. W. I
1914 - 1918

LEST WE FORGET
IN THE MEMORY OF THE
MEN AND WOMEN WHO
DIED IN THE SERVICE
OF THEIR COUNTRY
