REGISTRATION NOW OPEN FOR SALT RIVER FIREFIGHTERS  

9/11 MEMORIAL STAIR CLIMB 

Presented by Plexus

AT SALT RIVER FIELDS AT TALKING STICK




The Salt River Firefighters and Salt River Fields at Talking Stick have proudly partnered with the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation to host the 6th Annual Memorial Stair Climb presented by Plexus on September 10, 2022, to honor and remember the fallen firefighters of 9/11. The 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb is not a timed race event, but a way to honor the Fire Department of the City of New York (FDNY) firefighters, police and EMS who selflessly gave their lives on September 11, 2001.  

Each participant pays tribute to an FDNY firefighter, police officer, or EMS by climbing the equivalent of the 110 stories of the World Trade Center. Each climber will be issued a tag with the name and picture of one of the fallen to carry throughout the climb, symbolically completing their journey to the top of the World Trade Center Towers. Through firefighter and community participation, we hope to ensure that each of the 343 firefighters, 60 police officers, and 10 EMS personnel are honored, and their sacrifice, never forgotten.


The 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick presented by Plexus is an official climb of the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF). All proceeds will benefit the NFFF and the East Valley Firefighters Fund to provide assistance to families of fallen brothers and sisters in the Public Safety community. Learn more here

About the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community: 

The Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community (SRPMIC) is represented by two distinct Native American tribes; the Akimel O’odham (River People), known as the Pima and the Xalychidom Piipaash (People Who Live Toward the Water) known as the Maricopa; both share the same cultural values, but maintain their own unique traditions. Today, more than 10,000 individuals are enrolled Salt River tribal members. 

The SRPMIC is bordered by Tempe, Fountain Hills and Mesa and shares a Scottsdale address. The Community owns and operates several successful enterprises including  Talking Stick Resort, Talking Stick Golf Club and Salt River Fields at Talking Stick, all within  the Talking Stick Entertainment District. The culture and the history of the people is an important story to tell and have been interwoven at many of the destination amenities  through interior art, building design and landscape.
