Tunnel to Towers Foundation 9/11 Mobile Exhibit on Display at Moraine Park Campus

The Tunnel to Towers Foundation 9/11 Never Forget Mobile Exhibit visited Moraine Park’s West Bend Campus from Wednesday, October 15 to Friday, October 17. The Tunnel to Towers 9/11 Never Forget Mobile Exhibit was proudly supported by Kewaskum 9/11 Remembers Memorial and Moraine Park Technical College. They held a special night to recognize first responders on the evening of October 16.
The 9/11 Never Forget Mobile Exhibit is an 83-foot tractor trailer that allows visitors to immerse themselves in the 1,100-square-foot exhibit space. The mobile exhibit serves as a tribute to the individuals who lost their lives in the September 11, 2001 attacks, with a special tribute to the 343 members of the New York City Fire Department who lost their lives responding to the attack. Visitors were given tours carried out by New York City Fire Department firefighters who responded to the scene on 9/11 and in the recovery efforts afterwards.
Fuzz Martin, President of the Board of Directors for Kewaskum Remembers 9/11 Inc. said, “It was inspiring to see so many educators and community members engage with this powerful experience. It sparked meaningful conversations about September 11th remembrance and education, both of which are core to our mission at the Wisconsin 9/11 Memorial & Education Center.”
