This morning, we commemorated the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks. Chief Strahan of the Greenfield - MA Fire Department spoke, and a flag from the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) was raised and then lowered with the other flags.

We encourage the Greenfield community to take a moment to remember the lives lost on 9/11 and in the days, weeks, and years that have followed.
