The shootings at Columbine High School in Littleton Colorado touched us all. As a
community and nation, we were in shock or disbelief that such a senseless act could
take place in our community. At first, there was an outpouring of flowers, notes,
poems, ribbons, stuffed animals, pictures and other objects brought to Clement Park
to pay tribute to those that died, were injured or traumatized. From that initial
outpouring of emotions and disbelief came the concept of establishing a permanent
public memorial near the high school, a memorial that would serve to honor those
innocent victims but also provide a historic record of this tragedy and to deliver
a message of hope for many generations to come.
This site is dedicated to honor and remember the victims of the April 20, 1999 shootings at Columbine High School.
