Where were you 23 years ago, when everything changed in an instant? We remember that day vividly, and now, we're coming together to honor the heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice. Join us for the 3rd Annual Rockford Hero Climb, benefiting The Greg Lindmark Foundation, presented by Anderson Toyota. On Sunday, September 8th, starting at 11 AM at Swanson Stadium at Guilford High School in Rockford, we will gather to pay tribute to those who gave everything. Walk alongside local first responders as they climb 110 flights of stairs in memory of their fallen FDNY brothers and sisters. Whether you choose to climb, use the track or simply come to show your support, there’s a place for you. Group rates and non-climber options are available. Your participation includes a finisher medal, a commemorative event t-shirt, and the chance to be part of something truly meaningful. Let’s come together as a community to remember, honor, and support. Grab the details and tickets here: https://www.thexrockford.com/rockford-hero-climb-2024-honor-the-fallen-join-the-climb/
