Yesterday evening some of our team participated in the 9/11 Stair Climb where community members and first responders gathered to climb the grandstands at the Lake County Fairgrounds.
Each person climbed a total of 2,200 steps, or 110 stories, equivalent to that of the World Trade Center.
Nearly 350 first responders lost their life on 9/11 trying to save others.
This event is held to remember and honor their sacrifice, and each participant is given a wristband with the name of a first responder who passed on that day 24 years ago.
