City of Riverside to honor heroes and victims of Sept. 11

Join the City of Riverside as it honors and remembers the heroes and victims of Sept. 11 at the city’s 9/11 Remembrance Day Ceremony on Wednesday, Sept. 11 at Veterans Plaza outside City Hall.

The ceremony will start promptly at 9:11 a.m. with a Presentation of the Colors by Riverside Fire and Police Honor Guard. This will be followed by the National Anthem and the Pledge of Allegiance. After the invocation, hear reflections from Councilmember Jim Perry, Mayor Patricia Lock Dawson, Police Chief Larry Gonzalez, and Fire Chief Michael Moore. The ceremony will conclude with a moment of silence.

The “9/11: One City Remembers Documentary” is another powerful tribute to the heroes of that tragic day. This compelling documentary commemorates the lives lost in the 9/11 attacks and celebrates the heroes who emerged, focusing on Riverside’s Urban Search & Rescue CA Task Force 6 (CA TF6) and their brave efforts in New York City.
