More than 900 men from across Muskoka joined the battalion during the First World War. They left Toronto in the spring of 1917, taking a train to the east coast and then shipping overseas. They travelled to England aboard the <em>Olympic<\/em>, sister ship to the <em>Titanic<\/em>, and encamped at Sunningdale in the Windsor Great Forest. The majority transferred to the Canadian Forestry Corps where they broke all records for the number of feet of timber cut in a 10-hour time period. The battalion&#8217;s crest, featuring a river driver with a pike pole, was hand-sewn by the women of Muskoka.
