9/11 Never Forget Memorial

Our plan of action was to first, collect 3,497 flags to represent the total amount of lives lost on that day. We then reserved a strip of land outside a building on a busy street. That same day, there happened to be a large event with at least 1,000 people attending so our location was superb. Our club arrived at the scene September 11th 2010 at 6 a.m., we then spent 2 hours setting up the flags and a huge banner that one of our club members made. After we held a public ceremony that included a speech I made, a student singing the National Anthem and other students playing "God Bless America" on the bagpipes. The event was covered by our local news channel and a few newspapers sent reporters out to cover the project. All in all, the event was a huge success.
