Please join the LaSalle Parish Veterans Honor Guard as we gather in remembrance for the annual 9/11 Memorial Ceremony.

The service will be held at the LaSalle Parish Courthouse on September 11 at 9:00 AM.

This ceremony is hosted each year by our local WoodmenLife Chapter 1145, and we invite the community to come stand with us as we honor and remember the lives lost, the heroes who answered the call, and the families forever impacted by September 11, 2001.

We hope you will join us for this time of remembrance, respect, and unity.

We have numerous gravel trucks turning on 2nd Street to avoid the truck route. This is a new road and it is not structured as the state highways are. This street was not built for heavy trucks. It’s simple, please use the truck route like you know you are supposed to do.

The mosquito truck sprays inside the city limits on Monday and Thursday afternoons. We cannot spray at your residence when children or adults are outside. Please go inside when you hear the truck coming in your area. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
