Eastvale – It doesn’t seem possible that 13 years have passed since the horrific events of Sept. 11, 2001 permanently changed the face of our nation. The City of Eastvale will join organizations and individuals across the country and across the globe to remember and honor the thousands of innocent men, women, and children killed through acts of terrorism.
The City of Eastvale will hold a 9/11 Memorial Ceremony and Moment of Silence on Thurs., Sept. 11, 2014 at Eastvale Fire Station 27, located at 7067 Hamner Avenue. The ceremony will begin promptly at 6:59 a.m.
Please join our Eastvale Firefighters, Eastvale Police Department, City Council members and staff as they observe a moment of silence in honor of the heroes and victims of 9/11.
As a special commemoration, the Eastvale Firefighters and Police Officers will gather together in uniform at the base of the Fire Station 27 flag pole, and stand at attention during the posting of the American Flag at exactly 0659 hours PST (the time of the collapse of the south tower). The American Flag will be posted by Eastvale Boy Scout Troop 2012 and Cub Scout Pack 803. The Eastvale safety personnel and all in attendance shall observe a full moment of silence.
Let us come together as a community for the 13th Anniversary of 9/11 to honor, remember and reunite. This event is open to the public and citizens are encouraged to attend. Coffee and donuts will be available after the ceremony.
