Walk of Remembrance Marks 25th Anniversary of 9/11

First responders from across Kershaw County will take part in a five-mile Walk of Remembrance on Friday, September 11, marking the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

The walk begins at 9:03 a.m. at the Lugoff Fire Department, 892 Highway 1 South, and will travel along Highway 1 into Camden before concluding at the Camden Fire Department.

The community is encouraged to line the route with American flags and patriotic displays and cheer on local first responders as they remember the 2,977 lives lost on September 11 and honor the courage and sacrifice of first responders.
