PHOENIX — To once again honor the lives lost and families forever changed on Sept. 11, 2001, the city of Tempe is hosting Healing Field as a tribute.

The Exchange Club of Tempe will oversee the four-day event from Thursday to the following Monday morning.

Community volunteers will kick it off at 5:46 a.m., the same time the first plane hit the World Trade Center, and close the ceremony at 6 a.m. by setting up and taking down thousands of U.S. flags. The flags will be placed all around Tempe Beach Park.
