"America Remembers" Tribute and Fireworks




Today marks the tenth anniversary of a day Americans will never forget.

The Puyallup Fair is taking time to remember those who sacrificed their lives to protect our country, and those lives that were lost on September 11, 2001.

The “America Remembers” tribute will be held from 6-8 p.m. on the Coca-Cola Stage, and is free with Fair gate admission. The Puyallup Seventh-Day Adventist Church has held this tribute at the Fair for several years, and will feature select members of the military and emergency responders again this year. This tribute will feature keynote speaker, Major General James M. Collins Jr., an experienced executive and opinion leader in the Army, business, and volunteer communities of the state and the nation.

As a remembrance of that tragic day, a fireworks spectacular will take place tonight after sundown at approximately 8:15 p.m.

The fireworks can be seen from most every vantage point at the Fair.
