Special Ceremonies In Observance of September 11, 2001
Published by Township_Web_Admin on Tue, 08/30/2016 - 10:36On the 15th anniversary of the terror attacks committed on September 11, 2001, Pennsauken Township will be hosting several events to remember those who lost their lives and reflect on the sacrifices of those who continue to work tirelessly to keep our communities safe.An annual tradition in Pennsauken is the placement of 2,997 American flags, one for each individual who lost their life during the attacks, throughout the town’s 9/11 Memorial, located at the corner of Merchantville Ave. and Rt. 130. This will
continue again this year.
Volunteers are needed to help distribute the flags on Saturday, Sept. 10 at 11:59 p.m. and remove them on Friday, Sept. 11 at 11:59 p.m. Those wishing to participate on either day are asked to arrive by 11:45 p.m. at the latest.
In addition, Pennsauken Township and the Pennsauken-Merchantville Area Chamber of Commerce are holding a special ceremony at the 9/11 Memorial on Sunday, Sept. 11, beginning at 12:15 p.m. The ceremony will feature the performance of patriotic songs and a symbolic gesture to remember those who lost their lives during the attacks 15 years ago.
Pennsauken’s 9/11 monument was first dedicated on Sept. 11, 2003, as a tribute to the heroes of 9/11, as well as direct responders such as police, fire and EMS, who serve every day to protect American citizens in the communities where they live. In remembrance of the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, a steel beam from the World Trade Center North Tower was dedicated as a permanent part of the memorial.
