FARGO - As Americans mark the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks next month, a group of area residents have organized a community gathering in Fargo.
A 9/11 Community Tribute will be held from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 11 in the parking lot of Scheels All-Sports, 1551 45th St. S.
"We pay our respects to the loved ones who felt the severe loss of a family member or friend and we say thank you to those in our community who respond to emergencies day after day without hesitation and volunteer to serve our state and country in keeping us safe," said a statement from Perry Schumacher, one of about a dozen private citizens putting together the event.
The tribute is open to the public and is not affiliated with any organization or group, Schumacher said.
