9/11 Remembrance Ceremony in Wellington, FL

 

The community is invited to join Wellington’s Council at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, September 11, 2012 to honor the victims of 9/11 at a remembrance ceremony at the Patriot Memorial located next to Village Hall at 12198 Forest Hill Boulevard. The Village Council will make remarks and lay a wreath for those lost and affected by the attacks. The ceremony will be followed by a regularly scheduled Council meeting at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers at Village Hall.

 

Wellington dedicated its Patriot Memorial one year ago on the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. The memorial includes one of the largest steel beams salvaged from the World Trade Center as well as an eternal flame, fountain and etched glass panels inscribed with the names of the victims.

 

Patriot Memorial sponsorships, including personalized brick pavers, are still available through the Wellington Community Foundation.
