A 9/11 memorial ceremony will be held at Sylvan Cemetery in Citrus Heights on Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2024.
The ceremony will begin at 8:15 a.m. and last for 30 minutes, event organizers said in a media release. As in previous years, the memorial will be held in the gazebo near the center of the cemetery. Folding chairs will be provided.
The cemetery has hosted a 9/11 memorial ceremony annually for six years to honor those who lost their lives during the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Prior events have included local elected officials and members of the Citrus Heights Police Department, as well as veterans.
Sylvan Cemetery is located at 7401 Auburn Blvd. and is known for holding annual ceremonies each Veterans Day and Memorial Day. The first 9/11 memorial event at the ceremony began in 2019.
