All Sappers Memorial park is located on the southwest corner of Keith Wilson and Vedder Road. The memorial park contains a cenotaph completed in 1946 that honours all military engineers who gave their lives in service to Canada. The cenotaph reads: “In memory of all Sappers of the Empire who have given their lives in the service of their country” (Lawrence, 2005, p.45)
A 42-ton piece of mazonite was quarried from Harrison Lake and became the All Sappers cenotaph.
