Keep the fire burning

Chatham’s Amber Laurie receives the Liberation Flame on behalf of all Canadian Cyclists on the 2015 Frank Graham Cycle Liberation Tour in Markelo, Netherlands.

A group of young men and women from Chatham and Midland are touring Europe by bike, visiting such sites as Auschwitz, Poland, where the Nazis exterminated more than a million people during the Second World War.

They will return to Markelo, a town liberated by Canadian troops 70 years ago this month.

This torch will be carried through the entire journey.
