Since its dedication in 2015, annual 9/11 ceremonies have been held to enthusiastic and growing crowds. The Memorial has become a regional and state asset.

Our Memorial Team is constantly heartened by the comments we hear from visitors to the Memorial.

Most are highly moved, some emotional about the experience and so many ask, “How did this small community create such a significant 9/11 Memorial?”

That question is always an opening to tell our story of incredible community support during the 2015 construction of the Memorial and again when we built the Phase II addition in 2019.
