It’s Patriot Day

In memory of those who died 10 years ago today in the suicide attacks on the Pentagon and the World Trade Center, the St. Mary’s County Commissioners have declared this to be Patriot Day in St. Mary’s County:

Local officials will be gathering with citizens on the Leonardtown square from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. to remember those who died in the 2001 terror attacks. There will be an opening ceremony followed by a walk of 11 laps around the square and wreath laying. The Wounded Warrior Project will be accepting donations.
