Freedom Festival remembers 9/11



The lives of every American were changed on the morning of 9/11. The goal of the Virginia Freedom Festival was to honor the innocent victims of that tragic day, and to honor the brave men and women of our military and those who serve in public safety who give of themselves day after day to protect us. Here's to the Heroes!!!
