The day’s observances will begin at 8:30 a.m. at the Garden of Reflection in Lower Makefield Township. Situated on Woodside Road, this memorial will host a morning ceremony that adheres to the chronological timeline of the 9/11 attacks. The event will feature readings, the tolling of bells, and moments of silence at the specific times when each plane crashed on September 11, 2001. Religious leaders from various faiths will be present to offer prayers and reflections.
The Garden of Reflection will not hold its candlelight evening ceremony this year. Organizers announced that the evening event is set to return in 2026 for the 25th anniversary of the attacks.
There is a September 11 memorial behind the Tullytown Borough Fire Company station on Main Street. The memorial is open to the public.
