Amory Remembers 9/11 with New Flag Pole

AMORY, Miss. (WCBI) — Amory residents remembered victims of the terrorist attacks with a special ceremony.

Woodman Life is an organization that gives back to community around the state.

Every year they dedicated an American Flag and flag pole to a different city on 9-1-1 and Friday they chose Amory.

Organizers say it’s important to remember the lives that were lost so history does not repeat itself.

“We don’t ever want to forget that day. That day was a day in history that we want to remember, and not have it happen on our soil again,” says Mary Carter.

Amory high school band also played at the ceremony.
