Participants carry a banner in memory of those who lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001, in this 2016 file photo of the community parade honoring military and first responders. This year’s ‘We Stand United’ parade will be Saturday in downtown Great Bend.
A parade remembering the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and honoring local first responders and military personnel will be held at 5 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 8, in downtown Great Bend. The event will continue into the evening with a free concert, said Joseph Trimmer, organizer of “Together As a Community We Stand United.”
