Remembering 9/11: Share Your Photos, Thoughts and Memories

To honor the 10th anniversary of 9/11 next month, we want to find out how you were affected. Where were you when you found out about the attacks? Did you know someone who was killed or who survived?

Next month marks the 10-year anniversary of 9/11, when planes crashed into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania, taking the lives of thousands.

The effects of that day remain in the form of lost loved ones, survivor stories and remembering what it felt like to first find out about the tragedy.

To paint a picture of how San Marino residents were affected by 9/11 and honor your memories and loved ones, we are asking for your stories and photos.
