TOMORROW MORNING - The 25th Anniversary Remembrance Ceremony
As we mark the 25th Anniversary of September 11, 2001, your local first responders will honor the memory of the 2,977 lives tragically lost by carrying a special 9/11 Remembrance Flag across Whidbey Island.
After the ceremony at 8:30 a.m, the ceremonial run will begin at Windjammer Park in Oak Harbor, immediately following the ceremony, and continue across the island in a show of unity and remembrance, concluding at South Whidbey Fire. Along the route, you will see firefighters, law enforcement officers, EMS personnel, and other first responders wearing these commemorative shirts as they run in tribute to the victims, their families, and the heroes who answered the call that day.
