Oh say can you see 3,000 people singing the National Anthem?

A crowd of 300 people of all ages at the Wind Crest retirement community, 3235 Mill Vista Road, in Highlands Ranch will sing the National Anthem from 11 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. Friday to help set a record for The Largest Intergenerational Singing of our country’s song.

This historic National Anthem event will celebrate the 200th anniversary of Francis Scott Key’s writing of the poem during the bombardment of Fort McHenry that became the National Anthem.

Wind Crest’s Resident Chorale will lead everyone decked out in red, white and blue in the singing of the National Anthem.

Attendees will be available afterward to share their stories of what the Star-Spangled Banner and the American flag mean to them.

Thousands of people at Wind Crest’s sister communities in Maryland, Kansas and Michigan will also sing the National Anthem at the time it is being sung at Wind Crest bringing the combined number of singers to 3,000.

This event will set a record for being the Largest Intergenerational Singing of the National Anthem. A videotape will be sent to Fort McHenry, the Maryland Historical Society, the National Archives, the Guinness Book of World Records, the Smithsonian, and President Barack Obama.
