Join us for the Fifth Annual Sioux Falls Firefighters Association memorial stair climb - Step Up for Heroes! Community Members, Firefighters, Law Enforcement and Members of the Military from around the region will meet at Howard Wood Field in Sioux Falls, SD to climb 110 flights of stairs to remember those who lost their lives in the World Trade Center Buildings on 9/11/2001 and the every day heroes in each of your lives. **This is not a race, it is a memorial stair climb where each climber participates at their own speed.
The only event of its kind in the region, Step Up for Heroes will mark the 18th anniversary of 9/11 and will generate tremendous awareness and exposure for our cause, our city, and our private sector partners and supporters. The Sioux Falls Firefighters Association represents over 300 active and retired firefighters and their families.
