March 21. The Town of Cornelius and Lake Norman Nutrition are partnering to raise funds for the Cornelius Never Forget 9/11 Monument.
The Town of Cornelius is in the process of constructing a monument at Cornelius Fire Station #1 on S. Main St. It will honor first responders and citizens who were affected by the events on Sept. 11, 2001. The monument will include a piece of steel from the World Trade Center. The goal is to raise $100,000 and dedicate the monument during the Sept. 11 ceremony.
The Heroes Weight Loss Challenge begins April 5 and runs through May 17, with all proceeds going to the monument.
Registration is now open for individuals and groups. Visit www.LakeNormanWLC.com to register and make your $20 donation. Lake Norman Nutrition is at Shops on the Green on Torrence Chapel Road.
