September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. In case you didn't have the opportunity to attend last night's "vigil" in Liberty Square in Ellenville, I think you should know who was responsible. (Some of our ECS students and staff were there.) Tony Percoco, a former active ETA member and now on the School Board, organized the event. He did this in less than 24 hours with no use of the usual media notifications. Most of it was word-of-mouth (I heard an announcement in the MS the last period of the day) and quickly produced flyers in store/business windows. More than 200 people arrived before 7 p.m., most in need of some connections with other people. Standing in front of the American flag, draped from the overhang at Friend Center, an honor guard, not moving at all, held flags. Tony was the MC, introducing community leaders and clergy. Rev. Collins, also a member of our school board, really affected so many of us as he spoke about the tragedy and the effect. Our own Chamber Singers sang while everyone lit the candles they brought with them. We all sang "God Bless America" some people with tears in their eyes. After the completion of the "program," lit candles were placed on the circular area by the fountain. Many people remained, talking with others, expressing the gratitude for having the opportunity to be together. As Steve and I walked back home after attending a show at Shadowland, we stopped in Liberty Square, standing and looking at the candles still burning, more than 2 hours since they were placed there. Someone had set up a spotlight toward the American flag. I know we always "pledge allegiance to the flag" with our students, but not always having a true understanding of how special it all is. I sent an email to Tony last night, thanking him. Today there is a special Harvest Festival Day in Ellenville. If you attend, walk by the fountain. You'll see the candle wax on the side as a tangible reminder of what occurred. Enjoy your weekend with your family and friends. I know I'm going to spend some extra, quality time with mine.
