The Montecito Fire Protection District invites the community to participate in honoring those whose lives were lost in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
The ceremony will be at 6:45 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 11, at Montecito Fire Station One, 595 San Ysidro Road in Montecito.
The program will include an Honor Guard of Firefighters, a flag ceremony, patriotic music, tolling of the bell and a moment of silence.
Each year on this date, the Montecito district conducts a flag ceremony commemorating those who lost their lives on the hijacked flights, and the firefighters, police officers, EMS personnel, citizens and volunteers who died as a result of the terrorist attacks.
