A remembrance ceremony on the 10th anniversary of the events of Sept. 11, 2001 is set to be held at the Southwest Washington Fairgrounds.
The 1 p.m. program is being organized by the Lewis County Fallen Heroes Committee and United Way.
Expect a speaker who was present at “ground zero”, pipes and drums and a reading of first responder’s names.
Commemorative T-shirts will be sold to benefit the Fallen Heroes fund, a fund that assists the families of fallen heros in Lewis County and throughout the state, according to United Way Director Debbie Campbell. Donations will be accepted.
The event, and parking, is free.
Gates open at 11:30 a.m. and activities will continue after the program, to include live music.
