The Town of Shaunavon has implemented a Memorial Bench Program that will provide the opportunity to honor deceased loved ones, by having a bench with a memorial plaque installed on municipal property.

These vinyl coated ornamental benches can be located in numerous areas of the community, including trails, parks and green spaces that are on municipally owned land within the town of Shaunavon.

Ron Phillips is the Director of Operations for The Town of Shaunavon. He explained the costs involved in purchasing a bench. "The cost of a Memorial Bench, complete with plaque and installation, is $2,000 GST included."

One of these benches was recently installed at Hillcrest Cemetery, by the columbarium there.

Application forms and more information is available at the Shaunavon Town Office or on their website.
