Wilson Fire/Rescue Services joined this morning with representatives of Wilson Police Department, Wilson County EMS and others to remember the victims and the heroes of the 9/11 attacks on New York City and Washington, D.C., which were 25 years ago today.

Here are pictures of the events and a short video clip of the ringing of the station's bell, a time-honored tradition to recall fallen firefighters. Three hundred forty-four members of the New York City Fire Department and the New York Fire Patrol died as they tried to rescue people trapped in the World Trade Center buildings. Seventy-one law enforcement officers were also lost that day.

Happy Labor Day, Wilson!

Today, we recognize the contributions of workers who help keep our community moving, growing and thriving.

From the crews maintaining our streets and collecting our waste to the employees keeping our water flowing and our city services running, we’re grateful for the people who make Wilson a great place to live, work and call home.

We hope you enjoy a safe and relaxing holiday with family and friends!

Reminder: City offices are closed today. For service updates, visit WilsonNC.org.

Yesterday our city employees kicked off our 2026 United Way of Wilson County workplace campaign with a little Olympic-style competition.

For 55 years, City employees have come together to support United Way, and this year’s kickoff was a wonderful reminder of what makes that tradition special: our employees.

A big thank-you to everyone who competed, volunteered, helped behind the scenes or simply showed up to enjoy the day. We’re proud to continue this longtime partnership and look forward to another great campaign year.

Your August challenge: Get outside & try something new.
