In a small park at the intersection of Mississauga Street and Chemong Street.
This cenotaph, a tribute to the members of the Curve Lake First Nation Band, who served in the major conflicts of the 1900's. It stands proudly in a small, well-kept park near the village centre. The ground surrounding the memorial is in the form of a medicine wheel, which gives great strength to the names engraved on this marker. Originally erected in 1987, it was updated and re-dedicated in 2011.
The small park is adorned with benches, a gazebo, landscaping and the flags of Canada, Ontario, and the Flag of the Curve Lake band.
