"We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what
we give."
56th Annual Memorial Banquet Postponed to Autumn, 2021
The Covid-19 virus which has caused such hardship around the world has forced us to end a 55 year run of Annual Memorial Churchill Banquets, the longest-running in the world.
The 56th Annual Memorial Banquet will take place a year later than originally planned. Our Guest Speaker is booked and tickets will once again go on sale in September.
Please continue to watch this space for updates.
Our plans are still in place to welcome Mr. Allen Packwood, OBE, Director of the Churchill Archives Centre and Fellow of Churchill College, Cambridge. Mr. Packwood is the author of "How Churchill Waged War: The Most Challenging Decisions of the Second World War".
The Sir Winston Churchill Society of Edmonton isn't just about the things Winston Churchill did in the past. It's about his convictions, his wit, his power to inspire and how those qualities are necessary for our community today. With Churchill as an example, we want to inspire leaders, young and old, as we rise to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
Andrew Roberts, Special Guest Speaker at the Banquet in 2019.
