Northwest community members participate in the 9/11 stair climb last year at Bearcat Stadium.

Northwest Missouri State University will be paying tribute to lives lost during the events of September 11, 2001 with the annual stair climb.

The event will take place from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Bearcat Stadium and is open to the public.

The stair climb involves participating in a two thousand seventy one step challenge, the equivalent of the Trade Center's 110 stories. The climb honors the lives of first responders who died at the World Trade Center on 9/11, or passed due to injuries sustained during the response.
