Locals sign commemorative book

More than 50 local people have added their signature to a book commemorating the 10th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks in the United States.

The signatures were collected by Member for Gosford Cr Chris Holstein at his office in Woy Woy during the week of Monday, September 12.

He said the commemorative book provided Peninsula residents the opportunity to reflect on not only the almost 3000 people who lost their lives, but the tens of thousands of families and friends who continue to be affected by the events of that day.

The inscription on the book read: "From the people of NSW to the people of the United States of America: In remembrance of and tribute to those Australians, Americans and others who lost their lives and their loved ones on September 11, 2001."
