What a night!! A huge thanks goes out to our wonderful community surrounding Birch Bay Square. Last night we had roughly 200 community members attend our courtyard dedication event for our hometown fallen hero, Army Spc. Aaron Aamot. The nights processions included speeches by Mike Kent of KGMI, Levi Ware, part owner in Birch Bay Square, and our very own Pete Kremen, Whatcom County Executive. Pete Kremen presented the parents of Aaron Aamot a plaque officially dedicating February 11th Aaron Aamot day for Whatcom County. Later mall owners Levi Ware and Herb McAbee presented them with a replica plaque dedicating and honoring Spc. Aamot for his service to his country and announced the same plaque will be mounted in the Birch Bay Square courtyard naming it the “Aaron Aamot Courtyard.” Then as if that wasn’t enough, last but not least Aamot’s family was presented with another dedication piece signed by the President and Commander in Chief himself. Thank you again, we cannot tell you enough how honored we were to share such an event with the community. You can view more photos of the evening on the photos page at http://www.birchbaysquare.com
