Hood River County's 9-11-09 Memorial Service


The Hood River Fire Department will be holding a Sept. 11 memorial service on Friday at 6 p.m. and we urge everyone to support this observance because the terrorist attacks on the East Coast in 2001 led to our Heroes being deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan. The ceremony will take place outside the station at 1785 Meyer Parkway and soldiers from the Hood River Armory will be present to raise the national colors. Also attending will be law enforcement officials and firefighters from throughout the county so this is also a great opportunity to thank these emergency responders. The remembrance will take about 15 minutes and be followed by an open house with free hotdogs and sodas served to all in attendance. LifeFlight helicopter will be landing about 6:30 p.m. and people will be allowed to climb onboard and learn more about the air ambulance.

Proudly,

Your GHC
