Project 351 Remembers Boston Marathon Bombing With Patriot Place Rally

The youth leadership group marked the anniversary as part of a day of activities in Foxborough.

During a special reunion at Gillette Stadium over the weekend, members of the Project 351 marked the two month anniversary of the Boston Marathon Bombing with a special rally outside the stadium.

After a brief rally near the west entrance to the stadium, the group walked 2.6 miles around and inside the stadium in memory of those effected by the bombing.

During the day, the group also heard from special guests Rob Ninkovich and Honorary Chair Governor Deval Patrick.
