For the past four years, Sedona residents and visitors have gathered at Sedona Fire District’s Station 6 to honor those lives lost on Sept. 11, 2001.
And while they will still be honored, this year’s event will be quite different as a result of COVID-19.
To ensure the continued safety of the community, the ceremony will be a pre-recorded presentation this year
The link for the presentation will be available prior to Friday, Sept. 11, on the SFD website at sedonafire.org.
“We hope that you will join us in viewing this presentation and participate in remembering this very important event,” SFD Chief Jon Trautwein said in a press release. It’s been 19 years since terrorists forced four jetliners to crash in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania. Though Sedona is thousands of miles away, a small piece of metal from that day helps pay tribute to the nearly 3,000 lives lost during one of the country’s darkest days.
