Starting this Saturday - Utah 9/11 Healing Field® 2019 - Remembering the One

The Annual 9/11 Commemoration reminds us of the Unity we experienced in 2001. Utah’s 18th Annual Healing Field® Event located at the Sandy City Prominade

 

If we learn nothing else from this tragedy, we learn that life is short and there is no time for hate.””

— Sandy Dahl, wife of Flight 93 pilot Jason Dahl

SANDY, UT, UNITED STATES, September 6, 2019 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Once again, the Sandy City Promenade will become a sea of red, white and blue as over 3,000 U.S. flags will fly in memory and honor of each victim of the 9/11 terrorist attacks and each Utah fallen military or civil servant hero. The Colonial Flag Foundation proudly presents the 18th Annual Healing Field® tribute September 7-12, 2019. Please mark your calendar and join us for this inspiring event and support this year’s cause, “Remembering the One” a powerful program of Honor365.

Three terrorist attacks killed thousands of innocent victims in a single day, and thousands of U.S. flags will fly in a beautiful and memorable sea of red, white & blue with each flag telling the story of one person. The flags honor the lives lost in an uplifting display of the Stars & Stripes, while raising funds for Honor 365’s dynamic programs to benefit veterans.

Volunteers will, as they have done for years in the past, post 3,300 U.S. flags south of the Sandy City Hall in perfect rows and columns on Friday, the 6th of September beginning at 5:30 PM. Those who have taken part in the setup of flags enthusiastically return year after year to take an active part in the event, and there is a shared excitement felt when posting the flags.

With flags flying & free to the public, visitors may walk amid them and read the names of those remembered that are printed on tags attached to the flags. Knowing that those killed in the attacks are remembered brings a sense of healing to those visiting the display, and flags will remain displayed daily through Wednesday, September 11th before being taken down the following evening at 5:30 PM.

A special program and ceremony will take place on Wednesday, September 11th, which is the 18th anniversary of the 2001 attacks. This touching program brings the event into focus that the mature may remember and the young may learn

New this year: Country Western Performer, Charley Jenkins, will present a free concert reminding us of the good we are determined to preserve. Free tickets and information are available at the link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/colonial-flag-foundation-benefit-concert-featuring-tickets-65603930121?ref=ecount. Join us for a wonderful musical program on Saturday, September 7th at 6 o’clock PM. Bring your family and friends.

NEW ALBUM SMILE WIDE

OUT NOW

  

SEPTEMBER 6 - Today, ROAM have shared their latest full-length album Smile Wide, out now via Hopeless Records. Fans can stream or download it now: smarturl.it/SmileWide

 

The band announced the forthcoming album in July, and prior to it's release, shared four singles: "Turn", "Hand Grenade", "I Don't Think I Live There Anymore", and "Piranha". 

Smile Wide was recorded and mixed by Machine (As It Is, Every Time I Die, Armor For Sleep) and, according to the band, is about feeling overlooked and out of control - it's about feeling like a puppet in someone else's game and taking that control back for good. Inspiring and culturally-relevant, the album explores the rock bottom of feeling disheartened, stuck, and unsure of how to break free, and the journey toward gaining the confidence to stand up and not let people walk all over you anymore.

 

Smile Wide is the follow up to 2017's Great Heights & Nosedives. Since forming in 2012,ROAM has extensively toured the US and UK, including a supporting run on New Found Glory's "20 Years of Pop Punk" tour,  as well as sets at festivals including Reading & Leeds, 2000trees and Slam Dunk. Later this year, they will embark on a co-headlining tour in Europe with With Confidence. 

 

ROAM is Alex Costello (lead vocals), Alex Adam (vocals/guitar), Sam Veness (guitar), Matt Roskilly (bass), and Miles Gill (drums). 

 

Smile Wide tracklisting:

1. Better In Than Out

2. I Don't think I Like There Anymore

3. LOUD

4. Play Dumb

5. The Fire On The Ceiling

6. Piranha

7. Red & Blue

8. Hand Grenade

9. Toy Box

10. Turn
