Roswell Serves Up Thanks to 9-11 First REsponders


It was a beautiful afternoon when the fourth annual 9-11 First Responders Cookout was held Saturday, September 16th at Roswell Fire Station #24.  Over 300 Roswell First Responders were served hamburgers/hot dogs & brats by over 20 Rotary Members and 12 Interact students representing the Blessed Trinity and Roswell HS Interact Clubs.

During the September 11, 2001, attacks, 2,977 people were killed and more than 6,000 others were injured. Of the 2,977 fatalities, 2,753 were killed in the World Trade Center and surrounding area, 184 at the Pentagon, and 40 in Pennsylvania. These deaths included 265 on the four planes. The attacks remain the deadliest terrorist act in world history.

We need to thank the Roswell Rotary Club 9-11 Committee Dave Young, Gene Beckham, and Jack Wyche.
