This year marks the 14th anniversary of the tragic terrorist attacks that took thousands of lives. Flags were placed near the fountain spelling the words “United We Stand’’ and “Stay Strong.’’ ASG started placing the flags in 2011 to commemorate the 10-year anniversary. They planned to do it that one time but Minhchau Chau, the former president of Circle K, asked to continue. The flags were sponsored by ASG at the request of Circle K. “It’s a huge part of our history and we should remember it not just for 10 years or 50, 9/11 was a catalyst for a lot of change in our life and nations,” Chau said. -Laura Garcia WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU Have a news tip or know about other events around town?
