Jackson Fire Department to host 3rd Annual Patriots’ Day Memorial Stair Climb

PRESS RELEASE FROM THE CITY OF JACKSON, TENNESSEE:

Jackson Fire Department to host 3rd Annual Patriots’ Day Memorial Stair Climb 

We are all set to host our 3rd Annual Patriots’ Day memorial Stair Climb at 8:00 a.m., Saturday,  September 7, 2024 at the Ballpark at Jackson, 4 Fun Place, in Jackson, Tennessee. 

The Jackson Fire Department would be honored to have your presence and would love to have  a team comprised of members from your organization, school, church, or civic group participate  in the Stair Climb, training evolutions, or come spectate and support. 

The objective of this event is to bring awareness and honor all first responders that tragically  lost their lives in the line of duty. Especially those on September 11, 2001! 

Each year has seen an increase in attendance and we hope to do the same this year. 

The stair climb is open to all first responders, military personnel, and members of the  community. The climb will consist of participants ascending approximately 2200 stairs, which is  symbolic of the 110 stories ascended by first responders at the world trade center. The stair  climb may be completed in full personal protective gear, partial gear, or gym clothes. In  addition to the stair climb there will also be ground games for adults and children, vendor  booths, a dunking booth, corn hole tournament and much more.  

Register by selecting the “JFD Stair Climb” Button on the Fire Department landing page of the  City of Jackson website https://www.jacksontn.gov. Group rates available via Event contact! 

Never Forget. 

*Proceeds will benefit the Public Fire Education Fund through The Community Foundation of West Tennessee.
