Next up is the Patriot Run, a 10K, 5K and Fun Run, on Saturday, Sept. 7, at the Prescott Valley Civic Center.

The events begin at 7 a.m. For more information, visit www.facebook.com/patriotrun2019 or www.raceentry.com.
After the Blessing of the Fields at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, the town presents the first of two free patriotic concerts. On Saturday at 6 p.m. it will be a Patriotic Youth Concert, featuring Humboldt Unified School District students, at the Civic Center.
The second concert will be on Tuesday, Sept. 10, also at 6 p.m., featuring the High Desert Brass Band.
The annual 9/11 Memorial Program will begin at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 11, at the Prescott Valley Civic Center’s Theater on the Green.
The ceremony, with a backdrop of the Healing Field’s 3,000 American flags, will include Police and Central Arizona Honor Guards, bagpipers, and Keynote Speaker Patty Mack, a retired captain of the New York State Court Officer’s Academy and a survivor of the 9/11 attacks.
