Patriot Day observance in Manchester is scheduled for Sunday, September 11th, at 2pm, on the courthouse lawn. Normally the ceremony is held at 11am, however due to it being on Sunday those in charge of the event wanted everyone to be able to attend church if they choose.
This is the 15th year for the event held in Manchester.
Patriot Day is an annual observance on September 11 to remember those who were injured or died during the terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11, 2001. The event held each Sept. 11 in Manchester is to honor first responders in our area. The local veterans groups put on the event so that we can pay tribute to those who serve us.
If it rains, the event will be held American Legion Hall at 130 Shelton Road in Manchester.
