As Lebanon Fire raises the flag near a piece of a beam taken from the World Trade Center South Tower, we take a few moments to remember September 11th, 2001.
A day we will never forget…25 years and forever more.
This afternoon’s storm packed a wallop. The strong winds did a number on many of our trees throughout town.
We appreciate teams from City of Lebanon Department of Public Works and Lebanon Utilities working to clear roads and debris.
