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
If you have something you would like to include on the agenda for discussion, please let me know by Monday afternoon. Having items on the agenda helps us stay on track and get finished within the hour that we have the room.
Our speaker will be Matt Anderson from Follow the Flag, who will discuss the unfurling of the largest free flying flag in the world, which is scheduled for Veterans Day in Snow Canyon State Park. I'm excited to hear about it.
Thanks, David
