9/11 Day of Service

Please be advised that the Naval Park SHIPS will be CLOSED on Wednesday, September 11. 

For the second year in a row, the Buffalo Naval Park will host its largest day of volunteerism on Wednesday, September 11. Around 120 National Grid employees will partake in day-long activities to kick off the 9/11 Day of Service, including welding, carpentry work, removing rust, running electrical wire, and painting the historic vessels.

They’ll be joined by staff from Highmark Inc. bringing the total number of volunteers to around 150. We are so grateful for their support and look forward to seeing all of the work they accomplish at the Naval Park.

The Buffalo Naval Park will host a 9/11 ceremony in the Hangar Building at 11:30 AM that is free and open to the public. The gift shop will remain open from 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM.
