Lafayette, IN 2005

Imagine a Sea of Red, White & Blue.

This field grows daily so that the 9/11 attacks never happen again

The opening ceremony will be held on Saturday May 21st at 10:00 am.  There will also be a short ceremony held each night at 6:00 pm to honor any soldier's that have been killed that day with the posting of an American Flag the playing of Taps and a prayer.
