Today, the Merced Police Department joined local first responders at UC Merced for the 9/11 Stair Climb Challenge, hosted by the UC Merced Police Department.
With each step, participants honored the first responders who answered the call on September 11, 2001, including those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
Twenty-five years later, we remember the lives lost, the courage shown that day, and the service and sacrifice of those who responded.
Thank you to the UC Merced Police Department for bringing our local first responder community together for this meaningful tribute.
We remember.
