An Arkansas Tech University registered student organization will remember the sacrifice made by first responders on Sept. 11, 2001, with a 9/11 memorial stair climb at Dr. Robert Charles Brown and Jill Lestage Brown Hall in Russellville.
The event will take place from 6-11 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 11. Full climb and half climb options are available. Participants are encouraged to bring a water bottle.
