Every December 6, at 9:00 a.m. (the time of the explosion in 1917 was 9:04 a.m.), there is a memorial service at the base of the Explosion Memorial Tower. The monument is in Fort Needham Park, in the area of the city that was known at the time as Richmond, and that was destroyed in the blast. Survivors are always honoured at the service and, at the 2011 service, there were still two survivors present. It's a very moving tribute every year.
