Orange County to Host 9/11 Patriot Day Ceremony at Arboretum
Never Forget Flag Presentation to take place
On the evening of September 11th, the Orange County Arboretum in Thomas Bull Memorial Park will serve as the setting for a moving Patriot Day Ceremony.
Open to the public, the ceremony will honor the memory of the 44 Orange County residents who lost their lives during the attacks, as well as the brave military personnel who continue to serve our nation. It will take place at the Remembrance Walkway and Garden, created in tribute to those remembered each year. The memorial features a striking, rotating granite sculpture of the earth, surrounded by bronze plaques inscribed with the names of the Orange County residents who perished that day.
Retired U.S. Army Colonel Glenn Marchi, now Orange County’s Commissioner and Chief Information Officer, will present the 9/11 Never Forget Flag. A first responder at the World Trade Center, he later deployed to Iraq in 2004 as a Battalion Commander with the 42nd Infantry Division, earning the Bronze Star Medal for meritorious service.
This ceremony offers the community an opportunity to reflect, remember, and honor the lives lost and the heroes who responded that day.
