Please open your calendar and mark the following dates and times to attend Drug Poisoning Awareness Day (formerly Overdose Awareness Day) events this August. This year you have two opportunities to publicly honour and grieve the people whose lives have been lost to drug poisoning, as well as demand change to help prevent further deaths:
Mount Forest
- On Thursday, August 20th we will gather in Mount Forest, at King and Main Street, noon – 1pm
Guelph
- On Thursday, August 27th, from 12-1pm we will gather at the Royal City Park near the covered bridge (opposite side to the Lawn Bowling Club) to honour & remember those we have lost unnecessarily to the drug poisoning epidemic & to unveil our Pathways to Remembering Memorial
Each event will host speakers, activities to honour & acknowledge those we have lost, as well as a moment of silence, and pizza.
