September 11: A Day to Reflect

The Common Ground will hold a memorial service this evening.

Although not a national holiday, September 11 is a day of reflection. Most remember where they were when the two planes hit the World Trade Center and will never forget the harrowing images that followed.

Today, we remember those that were lost and whose lives were affected by this tragedy.

The Common Ground is holding a Moonlight Memorial Service with the gathering and candlelight participation starting at 7:30 p.m.

The Common Ground was built as a reflective garden in Rotary Park to commemorate the victims and heroes of the September 11 terrorist attacks. Local civic leaders, business owners, politicians and residents came together to fundraise and support this effort. Now events are held at The Common Ground throughout the year to bring Sayville residents together.

Stop by the Common Ground this evening to remember your loved ones or pay your respects and reflect with your neighbors.
