DVSS high school students and chaperones gather together at Freson Bros. before departing for a ten-day excursion through Europe, on Thursday, April 6.
The group is heading overseas to be a part of the celebration of the 100th year of the Battle of Vimy Ridge.
The trip is spearheaded by former teacher Lynn Hemming and was three years in the making.
Each student has been assigned a name where they will find their grave and leave a Canadian souvenir to 'make it personal.'
