BILLINGS - As many as 1,000 flags are being displayed on the MSU Billings College of Technology campus to remember 9/11.

The Healing Field hosted by Billings Exchange Clubs for the second year in a row to reflect on the attacks that changed our lives 10 years ago this weekend.

The 3X5", 8 feet tall flags are for sale for $100.00 on site from 11 a.m. until 9 p.m. and at U.S. Bank Locations. Some of the money raised will be donated to the 9/11 monument which features a beam from the World Trade Center in New York. A portion of this week's proceeds will be given to local veterans.

A special dedication of the beam memorial along with a reflection ceremony is scheduled for Sunday at 2 p.m. at the College of Technology.

The flags will remain on display until Monday September 12th in field adjacent to the Montana State University Billings College of Technology, at 3803 Central Ave.
