RCMP Musical Ride Sunset Ceremonies: June 26th – June 30th

June 24th, 2009 Posted in News and Commentary

Don’t miss the upcoming Musical Ride Sunset Ceremonies, June 26th to June 30th, at the at the home of the Musical Ride – the RCMP Stables at the Canadian Police College. Come and experience a living tribute to Canadian heritage and history.

The RCMP promotes this as “the ultimate family experience in the nation’s capital”.

Admission and public parking are both free, however, donation boxes will be set up on the grounds to collect funds for The Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada.

While you’re enjoying the exhibition, don’t overlook the fact that a bridge at Kettle Island would result in as many as 3000 trucks per day barreling along the parkway within approximately 150m of the main stage.  

This would mean 250 trucks (about 1 every 30 seconds) could pass immediately behind the ceremonies during the course of the 2-hour show. Bad for the show, but even worse for the horses who live at the RCMP Stables year round and the children and families who regularly visit them.

Our research has led us to believe that Kettle Island is a bad choice for our region, yet we represent no particular group or neighbourhood. Anyone is invited and encouraged to participate in our blog.
