PREVIOUS DONORS who have already staked a claim:
- Are entitled to stake an additional claim(s) for each previously staked claim at $150 off the regular pricing.
- Cross-claiming is permissible. For example, if the initial claim was for a brick, this claim can be for a nameplate. Conversely, if the first claim was a nameplate, this claim(s) can be for a brick. This also applies to PSD claims from a person to a claim for a dog. As such, you may:
- Stake a claim for $150 for another nameplate for a fellow member/employee or friend, or a family brick with spouse (second man) or children.
- You may gift your option to someone else you know, so they can claim the $150 option. (We need an indication on Claim sheet of who the gifted person is. Conversely, if the gifted person is submitting the claim, we need to know who the original donor was). (we simply need an indication on the Claim sheet of who the gifted person is.)
- NOLB (No one Left behind) donations are most welcome & appreciated.
General Information:
- Engraved bricks are processed and engraved individually. Nameplates are assembled, 36 at a time on a single plaque and then cast simultaneously, as individual nameplates with raised text. This process takes about eight 8 weeks. However, as no placements will occur until warmer spring weather (Apr/May), We have lots of time but the earlier you submit your claim the earlier it will be ready for early placement.
- The individual whose name is cast on a nameplate or engraved on a brick is also entitled to submit their story of service (with photos), at a timing of their choice, for placement on our Virtual Pillars website.
- Interim gift card certificates are available for special occasions, such as birthday, graduation, retirement, anniversary, if you have a gift in mind. etc.

The Princess Royal Walk
This is a major, national initiative of the Friends of the Mounted Police Heritage Centre and the RCMP Veterans’ Association, located at the Mounted Police Heritage Centre, in Regina, Saskatchewan “Home of the RCMP.”
Flanked by 21 soaring pillars aligning the RCMP Heritage Centre overlooking the iconic north gate at “Depot” Division, the Princess Royal Walk will become a living legacy for those who help keep Canadians safe and are indeed PILLARS OF THE FORCE dedicated to those who honourably respond to the call of duty, day in and day out and to those who support those who do so serve.
Pillars of the Force will also help ensure the legacy continues and your story of service is shared with generations to come. The Virtual Pillars Wall located inside the Heritage Centre provides a state of the art large digital screen that will share your story of service and provide directional information to locate individual names posted along the Princess Royal Walk.
