Hamilton Township will hold its annual September 11 remembrance ceremony on Friday, September 11, 2015 at 12 noon at the September 11th Memorial Grove inside the Klockner Road Entrance of Veterans Park.

The ceremony will include the participation of Hamilton Township Mayor Kelly Yaede, Hamilton Township Police, Fire and First Responder personnel, the Hamilton Township Patriotic Committee, Rev. Ian Hill of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church, the Hamilton Township Police and Fire Honor Guards, the Hamilton Township Fire Department Pipe & Drum Band and the Steinert High School Select Choir, under the direction of Richard Schneider.

Hamilton’s September 11th Memorial Grove area holds a Steel Beam from the World Trade Center, as well as a Fire Fighter monument and a memorial to the Hamilton residents we lost on September 11, 2001 (William Reed Bethke, Daniel Leonard Maher, Susan L. Schuler and Jeannine Damiani-Jones).

Due to anticipated crowds and limited seating capacity, attendees are encouraged to arrive early or to bring lawn chairs.

In the event that inclement weather on September 11th causes the formal ceremony to be cancelled, a Memorial Wreath will be placed at the Memorial Grove as soon as weather permits.
