PIERCE MANUFACTURING INC. is hosting its fifth annual 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb at historic Lambeau Field on Saturday, September 16, 2017. Cosponsored by the Green Bay (WI) Metro Fire Department, all proceeds raised will benefit the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF) to assist the families of fallen firefighters and to work within the fire service community to reduce firefighter deaths.

Last year, nearly 2,000 residents, firefighters, and local businesses together raised more than $85,000. Stair Climb participants are invited to climb the equivalent of 110 stories - the height of the fallen World Trade Center towers - on the steps of Lambeau Field. The climb will span the entire bowl inside the stadium to accommodate the anticipated large number of climbers paying tribute to the firefighters who gave their lives at the World Trade Center.
