The Eagles’ Haven Wellness Center will host the “Forever in Our Hearts” 7th Commemoration on Friday, February 14, 2025, honoring the 17 lives lost in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting.

Since opening in March 2019, Eagles’ Haven has provided wellness services and support to the Parkland and Coral Springs communities as they heal from the tragedy.

The outdoor event will provide a space for remembrance, healing, and community support. It will also offer meditation, movement, and creative arts experiences inspired by the passions of those honored. Therapy dogs and ponies will be present to provide comfort, and a Candle-Lighting and Dove-Release Ceremony will serve as a moment of reflection.

Several public officials will attend, including State Representative Christine Hunschofsky, State Senator Tina Polsky, Cindy Arenberg Seltzer, President and CEO of the Children’s Services Council of Broward County, Broward Schools Superintendent Dr. Howard Hepburn, and Judge Elizabeth Scherer.

The event will begin with a Candle Lighting and Dove Release Ceremony at 1:30 p.m. Wellness activities, including a drumming circle by Vibration Integration, an Irish dance performance by the Drake School of Irish Dance, and a therapeutic fitness session with Matthew Hamburger, will take place from 2:30 to 4:00 p.m.

The commemoration will be held at Eagles’ Haven Wellness Center, 5655 Coral Ridge Drive in Coral Springs.

Evening activities will continue at Pine Trails Park with an event by the City of Parkland.
