    logo_sedonafiredistrictSedona AZ (September 7, 2016) – The Sedona Fire District invites the community to the  dedication ceremony for the 9/11 Memorial on Sunday, September 11, 2016 at Sedona Fire District Fire Station #6, located at 2675 State Route 179, between Chapel Road and Meadowlark Drive. The dedication ceremony will start at 1:00 pm. A free light lunch will be served to attendees at 12:00 -Noon. Parking is available at our neighbors, Jewish Community of Sedona and the Verde Valley Synagogue; Christ Lutheran Church; and across the street at St Luke’s Episcopal Church. Carpooling is strongly encouraged.

    The centerpiece is a steel girder from the World Trade Center ruins in New York City. The Sedona Fire District (SFD) is honored to have received one of the last remaining artifacts from the World Trade Center. The 5½-foot, 3,000-pound piece of steel is believed to be from the 20th floor of one of the Twin Towers. The memorial is honoring the 2,996 lives that were lost. Included in this number are 343 firefighters and 72 law enforcement officers. SFD Fire Chief Kris Kazian states “The SFD 911 Memorial Committee and our local tradesmen have been hard at work to make sure we properly present this piece of America’s history here in Sedona. We are honored to have the chance to be part of the firefighters and police officers history and culture as 9/11 will forever be remembered. This is an amazing addition to our community”.

    This project is a community effort was made possible by the generous donations from the community without their support this memorial would not have been possible.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone.

Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
