Here are some smaller photos from today’s remembrance of 9/11.

To believe that it has been 25 years since the day we lost friends, students, teachers, first responders, and Active Duty members.

We thank Hillsborough County for bring us together to remember the impact of this tragedy on our lives and we thank our current active duty members, and first responders who continue to fight for our freedom and the safety of our communities.

May we continue to remember the sacrifices that were made 25 years ago and continue to teach future generations of the history of 9/11.

Also, we thank hcdmsva for bringing us out here to remember 9/11 and to support our community today. Thank you 🙏🏽.

Today Student Veterans and Dependents from Hillsborough College SVO, University of South Florida SVA and St. Petersburg College SVA, came together at Veterans Memorial Park in Tampa to honor and remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001. 🇺🇸

We had the opportunity to hear from Florida’s Lieutenant Governor, Hillsborough County commissioners, and other community leaders while reflecting on the sacrifices of the victims, first responders, service members, and countless others whose lives were forever changed by 9/11.

As student veterans and advocates, we’re proud to stand together in remembrance and continue carrying forward the values of service, sacrifice, and community.

Never Forget. 🇺🇸

Our community is so rich with veterans, and it’s important that we take good care of them. The Veterans’ Success Center at USF St. Pete does just that. I’m proud to have secured federal funding for their new space to be completed in 2027!

I’m so proud of what they’ve done so far and excited for what their new space will allow them to do in the future. Go Bulls! 💚🤘🏼🇺🇸

This past Friday, SVA chapters came together at Elev8 for an amazing night of bowling, laser tag, and some friendly competition! 🥳

Huge congratulations to the Hillsborough College Dale Mabry SVA for taking home the trophy!

This was the first annual SVA Bowling & Laser Tag event, and we’re excited to kick off what we hope becomes a tradition every semester!

A special shoutout to St. Petersburg College SVA and USF SVA for coming out, competing, and enjoying the night with us!

Thank you to everyone who made this event possible. We’ll see you at the next one! 🫡🎳
