Sept. 11 Moment of Remembrance

On Sunday, Sept. 11, at noon, Crystal Lake will join communities throughout the nation in marking the 10th anniversary of Sept. 11 with a "Moment of Remembrance." Available Police and Fire Rescue sirens will sound at noon, and Crystal Lake’s faith community is being asked to sound bells or chimes at that moment. The community is also asked to fly the American flag that day, at half staff if possible, as a sign of unity and remembrance. As part of the “Moment of Remembrance”, the Crystal Lake Fire Rescue and Police Departments Honor Guards will also conduct a flag and bell ceremony at the Crystal Lake City Hall, located at 100 W. Woodstock Street. The ceremony will begin at 11:55 a.m. and will be conducted at the outdoor entrance of City Hall in front of the flag poles.
