Barnegat Township is planning a ceremony marking the 20th anniversary of 9/11 on Saturday, Sept. 11 beginning at 8 a.m. at the high school football field.

“We’re going to ask that everyone get there by 7:45,” said coordinator Fred Rubenstein.

Rubenstein was recently appointed by Mayor Albert Bille to head up a committee to organize the event. He has received a commitment from retired Brigadier Gen. Lawrence Thomas III as keynote speaker.
