This exhibit celebrates
veterans from Okotoks and
District: those from here,
and those who moved here in
later years. Four of this
exhibit’s storylines,
Remembering Our Fallen Heros,
Letters From the Frontlines,
Amazing Stories, and The
Homefront, draw from our

large database of information
on veterans from the region.
In Remembering Our Fallen
Heros, we have used a
selection of video clips to
introduce silent,
commemorative pictures and
text. It shows how the
Okotoks community remembers
its veterans. The remaining

three storylines use image
and sound narration
exclusively. Voices were
provided by volunteers from
the Okotoks community and
staff of the Town of Okotoks.
   Our source materials are
