[QUOTE="Okiewan, post: 1477103, member: 16119"] [B][SIZE=6]September 11, 2001.[/SIZE][/B] Most know of that date, many reading this weren't born yet and some remember it like it was yesterday. We'd been planning [B]DirtWeek[/B] for over a year when September 11 happened. Obviously, my first thought was to cancel; it sure didn't feel like the time to be putting on an event like this. We didn't know if more attacks were coming, so many lives had just been lost, gas shortages, you name it. It was a very bad and uncertain time. So I left it to the members, we voted. Go or no go. This was the result of that vote 21 years ago: [ATTACH type="full" alt="dw01_poster_low_res.jpg"]21356[/ATTACH] Lot's of mixed emotions, especially when the National Anthem played over the park's PA every morning. One attitude was dominant that entire week: [B]THEY DID NOT WIN.[/B] This group, at this place, at that time made me incredibly proud and feeling very blessed to have these friends and family. All these years later we've lost some of the souls in this picture. They may be gone, but they are certainly never forgotten. [B]Here is the thread from 9-11 as it happened.
