Wellington Hosts 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony at Patriot Memorial
Join Wellington’s Council on Sunday, September 11th, 2016 for a remembrance ceremony to honor the victims of the 9/11 attacks. The ceremony begins at 5:00 p.m. at the Patriot Memorial located next to Village Hall (12198 Forest Hill Boulevard). Council will make remarks and lay a wreath to recognize those lost and affected by the attacks.
Wellington dedicated its Patriot Memorial five years 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 each of the victims.
Patriot Memorial sponsorships, including personalized brick pavers, are still available. Sponsorship forms can be downloaded online at www.wellingtonfl.gov. For more information, contact Susan Trzepacz at (561) 791-4000 or strzepacz@wellingtonfl.gov.
