Today, four of our own had the honor of representing Broken Bow at the Colorado 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
Our group included one member of the Broken Bow Ambulance Service, one member of the Broken Bow Vol Fire Department, and two members who proudly serve on both departments.
Alongside thousands of firefighters, first responders, families and community members from across the country, they climbed the equivalent of 110 stories, the height of the World Trade Center towers.
It wasn’t a race. It was a climb made in remembrance.
Each step was taken to honor the first responders who climbed those stairs on September 11, 2001, not knowing what waited above them, but knowing that people needed their help. 343 FDNY firefighters gave their lives that day, along with law enforcement officers, EMS providers and thousands of civilians.
Twenty-five years later, we remember their courage, their sacrifice and their willingness to answer the call when others needed them most.
We are proud of our four members for making the trip to Colorado and carrying a little piece of Broken Bow with them as they climbed in honor of those who never came home.
We climb because they climbed. We remember because they gave everything.
Never Forget. 9-11-2001
