This spring the Mariposa County Fire Department was the proud recipient of four pieces of steel I-beams which came from the rubble of the World Trade Center attack on September 11, 2001. From these four pieces of history, a sculpture has been created in honor of the four groups of people who lost their lives on that day. In the future, the sculpture will be placed on a pedestal between a representation of the twin towers along with an interpretive display. Please join the people of Mariposa County as we honor the lives lost ten years ago on September 11, 2001 and dedicate the site of this most creative and moving memorial sculpture.
