Thank you to everyone who joined us this morning for the Hutto Firefighters Annual 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb.We were honored to come together as a community to remember those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001 and paying tribute to the 343 FDNY firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice while responding to the attacks 25 years ago.This morning, people of all ages participated. Many of our firefighters took on the challenge in full bunker gear, and some community members donned weighted vests of their own. Thank you to everyone who climbed, encouraged others, and made sure everyone stayed hydrated and nourished throughout the morning. And thank you to Hutto ISD for your continued support and for always allowing us to use Hutto Memorial Stadium for this event. We are grateful to have shared this morning with our Hutto community.We will never forget. ... See MoreSee Less

25 years ago, on September 11, 2001, nearly 3000 people lost their lives. Among them were many first responders who answered the call that morning, including 343 firefighters.Today, we remember every life lost, the families and loved ones left behind, and the first responders who made the ultimate sacrifice while running toward danger to help others.The monument pictured here, To Lift a Nation, stands at the National Fire Academy in Emmitsburg, Maryland, as a tribute to those who answered that call. The 40-foot bronze sculpture recreates the famous photograph of three firefighters raising the American flag at Ground Zero the afternoon following the attacks. ... See MoreSee Less
