Our Mission: Bridging the Memory

As we approach the 25th Anniversary of September 11th, the citizens of La Junta come together to honor the fallen and celebrate the resilience of the American spirit. Through the Sgt. Brian Cowdrey Memorial 5K, the dedication of "Living tributes" and a community-wide Time Capsule burial at Fairview Cemetery, we ensure that the lessons of 'Never Forget' are passed to the next generation. > This is more than a ceremony; it is a promise to those we lost and a legacy for the citizens of La Junta of 2051.
