Photo Slideshow: Oswego Remembers

Oswego's 9/11 Empty Shoe Memorial got underway bright and early Sunday morning with dozens of volunteers waking up hours before dawn to line Washington Street from Route 71 to with nearly 3,000 pairs of shoes to commemorate each life lost on Sept. 11, 2001.

Here is a collection of photos from the morning.

The reading of the names of those who perished that day will be read starting at 1 p.m. outside . The  memorial in Hudson Crossing Park will close at 6 p.m. as will the empty shoe exhibit.
