There are events across the country on this 22nd anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
They include several in Florida.
The City of Boynton Beach held a remembrance ceremony Monday morning, but another Palm Beach County municipality has one in the evening hours.
The Village of Wellington is holding its 9/11 remembrance ceremony at 6 p.m. at the Patriot Memorial, next to Village Hall. The memorial features one of the largest steel beams salvaged from the World Trade Center.
Representatives from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, Palm Beach County Fire Rescue, and the New York Fraternal Order of Police, Lodge 3100, will also be in attendance.
