September Newsletter

Labor Day is right around the corner.  I can’t believe how fast summer went.

Thank you to everyone that came out to the Backyard Bash!  It was a fun night.

We have a lot going on in September. We have dinners booked with Heartland Homes on 9/11, Let’s Go Fishing on 9/18, Kinship on 925 and the Deer Hunters banquet on 9/26.   

The Legion Riders also have an event on Sept 12.  Please see our on line calendar or our facebook page for more info

It has been 25 years since 9/11.  Moments of Silence: 

  • 8:46am: Hijackers deliberately crashed American Airlines Flight 11 into floors 93 through 99 of the North Tower 
  • 9:03am: Hijackers deliberately crashed United Airlines Flight 175 into floors 77 through 85 of the South Tower
  • 9:37am: Hijackers deliberately crashed American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon
  • 9:59am: The South Tower collapsed
  • 10:03am: After learning of the other attacks, passengers on United Airlines Flight 93 launched a counterattack on hijackers aboard their plane to try to seize control of the aircraft. In response, the hijackers crashed the plane into an empty field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania
  • 10:28am: The North Tower collapsed
  •  

Never Forget.
