Dedication of Allen County 9/11 Memorial

The Allen County 9/11 Memorial will be dedicated on Thursday, September 11 at 10:00am at the Greater Lima Region Park & Amphitheater on the corner of Elm and Union in downtown Lima. As part of the ceremony, a bell will be tolled at the times of impact at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and the field in Shanksville, PA.

The memorial features a length of steel from the World Trade Center, a piece of limestone from the Pentagon and a boulder from the Shanksville, PA crash site. These are displayed alongside three flags in a beautifully landscaped area of the park.
