The Cape Coral Fire Department, the Cape Coral Police Department, and the City of Cape Coral will be hosting a remembrance ceremony on Sunday, September 11 on the front lawn outside of City Hall Council Chambers, 1015 Cultural Park Blvd., beginning at 8:30 am.

The ceremony will include the presentation of colors by the Cape Coral Fire and Police Honor Guards, a moment of silence, an invocation, and remarks from Mayor John Gunter, Police Chief Tony Sizemore, and Fire Chief Ryan Lamb.

The ceremony will end with attendees staking 2,977 American flags, each with a name of a victim of the attacks, on the front lawn of City Hall to honor their memory and reaffirm that “We Will Never Forget.”

“We invite the community to join us as we remember those we lost, and honor those who with dignity and courage made the ultimate sacrifice to help others,” said Fire Chief Ryan Lamb.

The ceremony is free and open to the public. The ceremony will also be broadcast on Facebook Live on the Cape Coral Fire Department page (@CapeCoralFD).
