Foxboro Jaycees Hold Sept. 11 Candlelight Memorial

The Foxboro Jaycees are inviting residents "to a quiet candlelight memorial to remember those we lost on September 11, 2001" 

On the tenth anniversary of the attacks, the Foxboro Jaycees are remembering the days after the 9/11 attacks in 2001 where millions of Americans, friends and strangers, gathered together, lit candles and took time to remember, reflect and grieve.

This year, the Foxboro Jaycees are inviting the public again to lit a candle and remember.
