The commemoration at the park is a wonderful tribute for our community to attend. Why not continue the commemoration of 9/11 by attending the “America, We Love You”  concert by The Chappaqua Singers at the Chappaqua Library at 4pm this Sunday. It is sure to be an entertaining and moving tribute to our country and to those we lost on 9/11.
