Today, the City of McFarland joins communities across the nation in remembering the lives lost on September 11, 2001.

Twenty-five years later, we continue to honor the courage, sacrifice, and selflessness shown by first responders, service members, and ordinary citizens who stepped forward in a time of unimaginable tragedy.

We remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost, the families forever changed, the survivors, and all those whose service and sacrifice continued long after that day.
September 11 remains a powerful reminder of the strength, compassion, and unity that can bring a nation together in its darkest moments.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget.
September 11, 2001 – September 11, 2026

At the most recent City Council meeting, participants in the City of McFarland’s Emerging Leaders Program had the opportunity to present a recap of their internship experience, sharing what they learned, the projects they worked on, and how their time with the City helped them grow both personally and professionally.

This year’s collegiate interns represented CSU Bakersfield, UC Merced, UCLA, and UC Davis and gained hands-on experience across several City departments, including Public Works, Finance, Community Development, and Administration.

Throughout the program, students were introduced to the day-to-day operations of local government and had the opportunity to contribute to meaningful projects. Their experience included exposure to areas such as project management, permitting and development processes, website and digital services, finance and administrative operations, records retention, clerical functions, and other responsibilities that support City services.

The Emerging Leaders Program gives students the opportunity to apply what they are learning in the classroom in a professional setting while gaining a deeper understanding of public service and the many career paths available within local government.

Their presentations to the City Council also gave each participant an opportunity to reflect on their experience, highlight the work they completed, and share the knowledge and skills they will carry with them moving forward.

The City of McFarland is proud to invest in programs that help prepare the next generation of professionals and public servants while providing students with meaningful experience serving their community.
We thank each of our Emerging Leaders for their hard work, professionalism, and contributions to the City of McFarland, and we wish them continued success in their academic and professional journeys!
