Remembering 9/11: Annual ceremony set for Sept. 11
7:00 pm - First Responders Park - intersection of Center & Main Streets, Old HilliardJoin First Responders upon sacred grounds for a moment of remembrance and reflection as our country observes the 18th anniversary of the 9/11 attack.
The Hilliard Division of Police and Norwich Township Fire Department will partner once again to host the City of Hilliard’s annual 9/11 Memorial Ceremony. The event will take place at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2019, at First Responders Park.
Located in the center of Old Hilliard at the corner of Center and Main streets, First Responders Park is local monument built for a national impact.
