To
honor the President's request to designate September 14, 2001 as a National
Day of Prayer and Remembrance, park
employees, visitors, friends, and family joined together in front of the
Yosemite Valley Visitor Center in remembrance of Tuesday's terrorist attacks.
Those attending signed a banner, which will be sent to Manhattan
Sites--a collection of National Park Service units in the New York City
area. Yosemite National Park is preparing to send park personnel to assist
as part of a Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD)
team, which will aid National Park Service employees and their family members
in the New York City area. The members of the CISD team will deliver the
banner to show the support of the Yosemite community.
