The Chattanooga 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb is Sunday. It’s special because this year, it actually falls on 9/11.
The event will be held at AT&T Field. The opening ceremony will start at 8:30 a.m.
The climb is a way for firefighters and members of the community to honor the 343 firefighters lost on 9/11.
This event is spearheaded by Chattanooga firefighters and it’s become a staple in the city as an annual meaningful recognition.
Participants can climb 110 floors or walk 3.43 miles around the field. Attendees can participate or observe and encourage those pushing through. Those interested in participating can register for both the climb and the 3.43 mile walk until 8 the morning of the event.
The walk will take place around the inside of the field.
Thanks to the members of the CFD who organize the stair climb and dedicate their time each year to making it a very powerful remembrance.
