On this 25th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, our community comes together to honor a day that forever shaped our nation. Twenty‑five years later, the memories remain vivid, the lessons remain powerful, and the promise we made still stands: We will never forget.

This year’s memorial event is inspired by the extraordinary courage shown on 9‑11‑01—by the first responders who charged into danger, the service members who answered the call, and the countless Americans who stood united in the face of tragedy. Their sacrifice and resilience continue to guide us, reminding us of the strength that emerges when a community stands together.

We invite residents, families, and supporters to join us as we remember, honor, and support the first responders and members of the armed services who protect and serve our community and our country every day. Your presence is a powerful tribute to those we lost and to those who continue to serve with unwavering dedication.

Show your support. Stand with us in remembrance. Become part of this memorial event as we ensure that the legacy of 9/11 endures and that the heroes of that day are never forgotten.
