City Center Fort Worth will host up to 200 first responders on Sept 11 for a Memorial Tower Climb.

First responders from City Center Security, local police and fire departments, county sheriff offices, and FBI agents will climb the stairs of the Bank of America Tower from the ground floor to the 27th floor four times to approximate the 110-story climb to the top of the New York World Trade Center.

Each climber will wear a lanyard with a photo and name of a 9/11 first responder.

The event is open to first responders by advance registration. City Center has a few remaining slots open for first responders from around North Texas. First responders can sign up online at www.citycenterfw.com/memorial-tower-climb.
