A Way to Never Forget the 343 Firefighters—and Support the Families of Fallen Firefighters
On Saturday, September 7, 2024, firefighters and supporters from across the country will gather for the Wiregrass 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb at the Enterprise High School Football Stadium.
This event is a way to honor and remember the FDNY firefighters who selflessly gave their lives so that others might live on September 11, 2001—and let their families and colleagues know that we remember.

Each climber pays tribute to an FDNY firefighter by climbing the steps at the Enterprise High School
Football Stadium for a total of 110 stories, representing the number of floors in the Twin Towers.
Participants will receive an honorary badge of one of the fallen heroes of September 11th.
The 9/11 Memorial Stair Climbs fund the programs provided by the NFFF to support the families of your
local fallen firefighters and the FDNY Counseling Service Unit.
In an effort to decrease heat-related instances and contamination, we are urging participants to climb in
athletic gear and not bring full turnout gear. For more information, please see the NFFF Statement on
