There is a large crowd of people gathered around the fountain, with boys in scout uniforms standing to the right of the fountain, and ladies and RCMP officers standing to the left side of the fountain. There is a man standing next to the fountain, blowing on a trumpet. There is a wreath hanging from the top of the fountain, which bears the inscription, "OF OUR FELLOW WORKERS WHO FELL IN THE WAR/ 1914-1918/ ERECTED BY/ THE CIVIC EMPLOYEES UNION - BURNABY - 1923" The War Memorial Fountain is now located in the Burnaby Village Museum site.
