2023 Patriot Day
I would love to see members of our Veterans Coalition attend our 9/11 commemoration event (Patriot Day: Remembering 9/11) at Historic Town Square, from Sept. 9-11.
Here is what we have in store this year.
• The commemoration program is set for Saturday, Sept. 9 at 10 a.m. at Town Square, near the splash pad.
• The Field of Heroes, set for the lawn just to the west of the Gold Star Memorial, will be set up the afternoon of Sept. 8 and stay up through the morning of Sept. 12. This is being set up by the Dixie High School Air Force Junior ROTC.
• On Sept. 9 at 7:30 p.m. there will be a flag retirement ceremony, conducted by the Sons of the American Revolution. This is new for 2023.
• On Sept. 11 at 7:30 p.m., Concert in the Park at Vernon Worthen Park features a patriotic concert with local favorites such as Eric Dodge. I think the tone struck in this concert will be reverence along with an uplifting reminder of how we were united as a country in the days after Sept. 11, 2001.
Thanks, David
