Hamilton Township is set to hold its annual September 11th remembrance ceremony
The ceremony is scheduled for 12 p.m. Sept. 11 at the September 11th Memorial Grove inside the Klockner Road Entrance of Veterans Park.
The ceremony include the participation of Hamilton Township Mayor Kelly Yaede, Fire Chief Mark Antozzeski, Col. (Ret.) Frank Caprario of the Hamilton Township Patriotic Committee, Father John Chang of St. Raphael-Holy Angels Parish, the Hamilton Township Police and Fire Honor Guards, the Hamilton Township Fire Department Pipe & Drum Band. Additionally, the Steinert High School Select Choir, under the direction of Richard Schneider, will perform as part of the ceremony.
Hamilton’s Memorial Grove area holds a steel beam from the World Trade Center, as well as a firefighter monument and a memorial to William Reed Bethke, Daniel Leonard Maher, Susan L. Schuler and Jeannine Damiani-Jones—Hamilton residents who lost their lives during the terrorist attacks.
Because limited seating will be available for the ceremony, attendees are encouraged to arrive early or bring lawn chairs.
In the event that inclement weather on Sept. 11 causes the formal ceremony to be cancelled, a Memorial Wreath will be placed at the Memorial Grove as soon as weather permits.
