Good morning and good day, Carson City. It is Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2019.

There will be a September 11 memorial event at Mills Park in Carson City this Wednesday. The service will take place at the 911 memorial beginning at 6 p.m. The event is hosted by Carson City Christian Ministerial Fellowship. Guest speakers are Carson City Mayor Bob Crowell, Sheriff Ken Furlong, Carson City Fire Chief Sean Slamon and pastors from local ministry.

Members of the Carson City community gathered Tuesday evening at the September 11 Memorial in Mills Park outside the Pavillion to remember those who lost their lives in the 2001 terrorist attacks and to offer prayers and hope.

This is to express my gratitude to the organizers of the 9/11 memorial held at Mills Park. The ceremony was poignant, reverent, and healing. The presentation of colors in front of the I-Beam was so moving as was the ringing of the fire bell later in the service. Also, I wish to thank the members of the community who showed up to remember our heros. Your attendance and quiet respect was amazing. Thank you Carson City for not forgetting.
