years ago by President Kennedy during the dedication
ceremony, and other special guests will include Brigadier

Kennedy's last dedications and one of his last public
appearances before his assassination on Nov. 22, 1963.
The anniversary ceremony will include many educational
displays on the construction and purpose of the dam, as
well as music by the 106th Army Band.
The event is free and open to the public. Park gates open
at 9:30 a.m. Visitors are encouraged to bring lawn chairs
due to the limited number of seats available.
Southwestern Energy will be providing water
to the crowd.
"I know that 10 years from now, if we come back again, flying as
we did over the land that we will see an even richer State, and I
think you can take pride and satisfaction in what you have done".
President John F. Kennedy

Volunteer tasks with the Chamber are often at times a challenge.To meet
those challenges are some who don't mind the heat, sweat, dirt and
grime; "they get down and dirty". This group has made it a family
affair. Have you wondered who took the time to protect the yards of
those who live along Front, Ely and bordering streets when the crowds
swarm Sandy Beach for the Fireworks Extravaganza and the Cardboard
Boat Races? This group faithfully stakes the streets twice a summer to
control the parking along these busy streets at our special events. Meet
these great volunteers: Chad Evans, Morgan Evans, Rachelle Evans,
Tonya Redd, Catherine Redd and Gary Redd.

Faces in the Smoke
Faces in the smoke so black. Why do
you come back every year on this date?

Why? Faces each and everyone tells a
story of life and tragedy. Their eyes
open to find the light. Their mouths open
to tell what happened to them. They
come every year to see the place called
Ground Zero being brought back; back
from ashes so black and steel so mangled
and torn. They see that place through
the eyes of those who worked there.
Today, just for one day, they come and
see the new hope that Ground Zero now
brings. Their names set in glossy metal.
They see a rose so lovingly set in to a
name. Is it the name of a mother or a
father who was there? or is it the name
of a child who died without their mother?
So if you go to NYC, Shanksville or drive
by the Pentagon and you see a face
rising in the smoke, it's mouth open as if
to say "lets
roll", know that they are there with you.
So listen close, you might just hear them
calling out from the Past and see their
faces rising in the smoke of a fire. Faces
in the smoke. Staring out at me and at
you. Do you see them?
I think we all did see them once, 12 years
ago. They were the faces of those who
died in the collapse of the Twin Towers
and in the heart of the attack at the
Pentagon and in the final seconds of Flight
93. Please tell me, did you see the faces
in the smoke?
