Coffee Connect: 25th Anniversary of 9/11 Remembrance

The Kalispell Chamber is proud to partner with the City of Kalispell, Kalispell Police Department, and Kalispell Fire Department for a special Coffee Connect commemorating the 25th Anniversary of September 11, 2001.

Unlike our traditional Coffee Connect events, this gathering will focus on remembrance, reflection, and gratitude as we honor those who lost their lives on 9/11 and recognize the ongoing service and sacrifice of first responders in our community.

The program will feature a performance of the National Anthem by the Flathead Choir, remarks from Lorraine Clarno, President of the Kalispell Chamber, Police Chief Jordan Venezio, Assistant Fire Chief Ken Whitehair, and City Manager Jarod Nygren. Coffee and pastries will be provided courtesy of the City of Kalispell.

We invite Chamber members, community leaders, and residents to join us as we come together to remember, honor, and reflect on the lasting impact of 9/11 while recognizing those who continue to serve our community each day.

Please note: This event will follow a special commemorative program and will not include our traditional networking format or attendee introductions.
