A 15-year tribute called "We Still Remember" will be held on Sunday with a procession of more than 200 motorcycles leading the way.  The parade promises to be a memorable event to watch and participate in.

                The event, hosted by the Sons of the American Legion Post 184, will include 14 area fire companies escorted by motorcycles and riders from several organizations, including the American Legion Riders.

                The procession starts at 1 p.m. at the Red Hill Fire Company, 71 Fourth St., Red Hill, and will proceed north on Main Street through all three boroughs, ending at the American Legion Post 184 in Palm (Upper Hanover Township).

                A ceremony at the site of the American Legion's 9-11 Memorial will be held from 2-3 p.m.  The ceremony will feature several guest speakers including State Sen. Bob Mensch (147) and State Rep. Justin Simmons (131).

                After the ceremony, a benefit cookout will be held on the grounds of American Legion Post 184.  The cost is $15 per person and features food, beverage and live music.

                All proceeds from the Memorial Benefit Cookout will benefit local fire companies and the 9-11 Memorial Maintenance Fund.

                The American Legion Post 184 in Palm is home to a permanent monument that stands in tribute to those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001 in the worst terrorist attacks in the United States.

                The base of the monument is an outline of Pennsylvania with a blue star marking the site of Shanksville, Pa., where United Airlines Flight 93 crashed, killing 40 people.  On that base is a structure in the shape of the United States' Department of Defense Pentagon building, the site where American Airlines Flight 77 crashed, killing 189 people.

                The memorial is topped by a representation of the World Trade Center Towers, the site where American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175 crashed and nearly 3,000 people were killed.

                The focal point of the monument is a piece of steel that was procured from the World Trade Center and transported in 2010 to the Palm location in what was the largest procession to ever travel the highways of our area. 

                The 13-foot, 6,400 pound section of twisted steel that was once part of New York City's World Trade Center was transported on a truck from Newark, N.J., to Palm with an escort of more than 3,000 motorcycles.  At times, the motorcycle escort stretched out for 8 miles along Interstate 78. The Sons of the American Legion Squadron #184 organized the motorcyclists and riders, who made the 100-mile trip.

                More than a thousand onlookers, from the overpasses in New Jersey through the streets of the Upper Perkiomen Valley, waved American flags and cheered as the iconic steel made the trip.

                All of Sunday's events are open to the public.
