Tenth anniversary of Great White fire observed

Posted: Updated:
WEST WARWICK, RHODE ISLAND -

Survivors and family and friends of the 100 people killed in the Great White nightclub fire gathered to mark the 10th anniversary yesterday.

Great White's pyrotechnics ignited soundproofing foam during the show on February 20, 2003, at The Station nightclub in West Warwick, Rhode Island.

A foundation working to build a permanent memorial at the site held a groundbreaking ceremony on Sunday. Construction will begin this spring.
