| The Chester County Fire Chiefs Association is encouraging members of the fire service and the community to participate in the Philadelphia 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb on Saturday, September 26, 2026, at the Xfinity Mobile Arena.
The climb will honor the 343 FDNY firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice on September 11, 2001. Participants will climb the equivalent of 110 stories, symbolically completing the journey those firefighters began that morning. Each climber will carry the name of a fallen hero as a personal reminder of the life and service being honored.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of September 11, making this an especially meaningful opportunity to come together and demonstrate that we will never forget.
The event’s goal is to bring together 500 climbers. Fire companies, emergency service organizations, businesses, community groups and individual participants are encouraged to register and form teams. You do not need to be a firefighter to take part.
The stair climb is not a race. It is an opportunity to reflect, remember and honor the courage and sacrifice of those who climbed before us. Proceeds from NFFF Memorial Stair Climbs help support the programs and mission of the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation.
The Chester County Fire Chiefs Association encourages its member organizations to share this event with their personnel and help ensure a strong showing from Chester County.
