20 years ago, our nation watched in horror as four commercial airliners were hijacked and directed towards major American institutions, including the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. That fateful day nearly 3,000 men, women, and children lost their lives and countless other families and loved ones felt the long-lasting impact of this tragedy.

Join Mayor Laura Weinberg and the brave members of the Golden Fire Department and the Golden Police Department for a September 11th 20th Anniversary Commemoration, as we pause and remember those lost on 9/11/2001, especially those public servants that gave the ultimate sacrifice that day in the service of others.
