Duties

The Honour Guard was originally made up to represent the British Columbia Ambulance Service members and the Province of British Columbia at funerals, memorials and the like for our members and members of other emergency services. The roll has expanded somewhat and guard members are asked to be at Paramedic Graduation Ceremonies, 25 Year Service Dinners, Rememberance Day Ceremonies and other functions that request representation of BC Ambulance Paramedics.

The Honour Guard is available for a ceremony, but contact must be made to one of the executive members and they will explain which functions are appropriate for the Honour Guard to be present at.
