2007 Arbor Award Recipients
Shirley M. Drummond
Arbor Award 2007 recipient
Joining the Soldiers' Tower Committee in 1989, Shirley Drummond initiated the commemoration of the 125th anniversary of the Battle of Ridgeway, a military engagement in which three University College students died in 1866. Her research and collaboration with the Queen's Own Rifles Regiment resulted in a successful memorial service on June 1, 1991. Shirley continues to lay a wreath at the monument every year. This 1951 Victoria College graduate also assists with the annual Remembrance Day service.
