Commemorate Mark Patriot Day with a Public Ceremony on September 11

On Thursday, September 11, a significant event is taking place in Ladd. This gathering, scheduled to begin at 11 a.m., is a poignant commemoration of the tragic events of September 11, 2001, and a heartfelt recognition of the daily courage and sacrifice of first responders.

The event, held at War Memorial Park in Ladd, is open to the public and invites first responders, community members, and families to participate. Father Ron Margherio, a Catholic priest from St. Bede Abbey and Academy, will deliver remarks at the ceremony.

This event serves a multi-faceted purpose. It is not only a solemn remembrance of those lost on that fateful day, but also a celebration of the resilience and heroism displayed by first responders. The day is being commemorated as Patriot Day, a national day of observance and tribute in the United States.

Following the ceremony, light refreshments will be served, providing an opportunity for attendees to reflect and share their thoughts. This event is a testament to the power of community and the importance of remembering and honouring those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

The attacks of September 11, 2001, occurred 24 years ago, and this event serves as a timely reminder of the impact those events had and continue to have on our lives. It is a chance for us to come together, pay our respects, and show our gratitude to the first responders who continue to keep us safe every day.

We encourage everyone in the Ladd community and beyond to attend this important event and show their support. Let us remember, honour, and celebrate together.
