Smyrna to hold first 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony

For the first time, the Smyrna Police and Fire Departments will co-host a 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony that is open to the public.

Previously, the city’s first responders have chosen not to hold a ceremony but to privately remember the nearly 3,000 people who died during the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil on Sept. 11, 2001.

The event will take place from 8:30 a.m. to about 9:15 a.m. Sept. 11 at the 20th Century Veterans Memorial, 2800 King St., Smyrna near Smyrna City Hall.
