Community members and local leaders gathered in San Luis Obispo Friday morning for a Sept. 11 remembrance ceremony.
The event held at SLO City Fire Station 1 included a CHP flyover, the Central Coast Pipes and Drums, a bell ceremony, and speeches from SLO City Fire Chief Randy Harris, Mayor Erica A. Stewart, and Police Chief Rick Scott.
White roses were placed on a 1,500-pound steel I-beam that came from the Twin Towers. Surrounding the beam are 403 vertical rods that symbolize the 403 first responders who lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001.
