<h3>ABOUT THE EVENT:</h3>
August 18 - 21, 2026 (Tuesday - Friday), 6:30-8:30pmExperiencing the summer tradition of Tōrō Nagashi within the tranquil beauty of Hakone's histroic Japanese garden as it glows with illuminated lanterns floating in our iconic koi pond.
Tōrō Nagashi, or “floating lanterns”, is a ceremony in which participants write personal messages on lanterns and release them onto water in remembrance of loved ones or to express hopes and gratitude. Traditionally the ceremony is associated with Obon, a Japanese summer observance with Buddhist roots honoring one's ancestors. At the end of each Obon season, lanterns are floated onto water to symbolize lights that guide our ancestral spirits. Today, Tōrō Nagashi is embraced as a cultural practice throughout Japan and around the world as a way of remembrance and reflection.
Participants at Hakone's Toro Nagashi are invited to write a personal message on their own lantern and gently float them in our koi pond following a brief remembrance ceremony.

Flame of Liberty Memorial, Los Gatos Civic Center, 110 East Main Street, Los Gatos, CA 95030 

9/11 at 25–Keepers of the Flame
Twenty-five years ago,
 America watched the unimaginable unfold — and in the days that 
followed, witnessed something equally unforgettable: ordinary people 
rising to extraordinary courage.&nbsp;9/11 at 25: Keepers of the Flame&nbsp;marks
 this milestone anniversary by honoring the heroes, victims and 
survivors of that day, and the generations who have carried their legacy
 forward ever since — our veterans, first responders, and service 
members who continue to answer the call to protect America and her 
freedom.&nbsp;&nbsp;Keepers of the Flame&nbsp;draws its 
inspiration from the Eternal Flame, a symbol used throughout history to 
keep memory burning bright through the darkest of nights, and the very 
flame that inspired the focal point at the heart of our Flame of Liberty
 Memorial. Just as that flame never dims, neither does the duty to 
remember, to honor, and to protect.
Join community members as we come together to reflect on 25 years since 9/11, and to celebrate the&nbsp;Keepers of the Flame,&nbsp;those who have carried, and continue to carry, the light of liberty forward.
