Details

In memory of those who tragically lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001, the Exchange Club of Tempe will present the Healing Field® tribute Saturday, Sept. 7 through Wednesday, Sept. 11.

Healing Field is a unique memorial that reflects on the tragedy of that day and pays tribute to the nearly 3,000 innocent lives that were lost. Thousands of American flags will be placed throughout Tempe Beach Park, representing the victims from that terrible day. Activities include a flag viewing, patriotic concert, 5K run/walk and morning and evening ceremonies on Sept. 11.

Every year, members of the community dedicate hundreds of hours to this grassroots effort to assemble and place the flags. It's a moving display and a reminder that we will never forget the tragic events of that day.
