The Vancouver Landing outdoor amphitheater will serve as a backdrop for reflection during a community gathering Friday, Sept. 11 at 8 a.m. to honor the victims and heroes of the 2001 attack on America.
The event is free and open to the public.
The observance will begin with formal posting of the colors by a joint honor guard comprised of members from local public safety agencies. The 30-minute ceremony will include comments by Mayor Royce E. Pollard and other local officials. The memorial ceremony will also include a tolling of the bell, and a moment of silence to honor the people who lost their lives eight years ago.
Vancouver Landing is on the Columbia River just west of the Inn at the Quay, 100 Columbia St., 98660. The site is served by C-Tran bus # 3, B loop. Call C-Tran at 695-0123 or visit them at C-TRAN.com for detailed schedule information.
