Today is the 25th anniversary of the attacks against the United States. It is a day for us to remember. Not just because our children are asking us about the history we witnessed for their school assignments. But because of the terrible cost of that day and the amazing things we saw and did as a country.

On September 11th, 2001, when the first plane hit the North Tower of the World Trade Center, Americans stared in disbelief that this was happening. But many people oriented themselves towards the towers and went in to help. First responders and regular citizens committed to helping perfect strangers at a time in need. Even after the South Tower was hit, the Pentagon was hit and the passengers on the 4th plane were able to force the crash in the Pennsylvania field, people kept going in to help get people out.

We lost 2,977 people from the direct attacks that day. We lost more in the rescue efforts and subsequent exposure complications over the years. We need to remember those who died from these atracks, but also those who went in and worked together for people they didn't know.

Today we had students from Payette Elementary come visit the Court, Jail and some Deputies. We had a good time partnering with the Payette County Sheriff's Office and the Payette County Clerks to help teach these student about the the Courts, Patrol and the Jail. One of our student Marshals even had to remind Sheriff Creech that phones are to be put away in the court.
