LA GRANDE – (Release from the Grande Ronde Hospital) September 11h was designated a National Day of Service and Remembrance by the United States Congress in 2009.
On Sunday 9-11-2022, Grande Ronde Hospital and Clinics will mark Patriot Day by honoring Union County First Responders – our local law enforcement, fire fighters, paramedics, emergency medical technicians, search and rescue, and military – as well as our own first responders and those military veterans currently working within our organization.
On 9-11, our flag will fly at half-mast in honor of those who choose to serve, protect and care for us every day, bu especially during the most difficult of times. We can think of no better way to honor the sacrifice and service synonymous with 9-11 than by celebrating the dedication of our own local heroes.
