 9/11 Memorial Run

Register at RunSignUp.com
Picture
Banner Elk Fire & Rescue will hold its second annual 9/11 Memorial Run on the morning of Saturday, September 10, 2022. Later that day, they will also host a special Station Open House. It will be a time for us to remember those we lost in the terrorist attack in 2001. Plus, it’s a time to thank our current day firefighters and learn more about what they do to protect our community.

The Memorial Run and Walk begins at 8:46 AM at the fire station at 345 Shawneehaw Ave. This is the time the first tower at the World Trade Center was struck. The 3.43-mile route through town and Lees-McRae College campus remembers the 343 FDNY firefighters who lost their lives that day. Register in advance for $25/person and receive a commemorative t-shirt. Registration is limited to 100 persons.

The Station Open House will be held 11 AM–1 PM. There will be fun for all ages with tours, fire truck climbing, training demos, gifts for kids and sweet treats from the Auxiliary. Meet the firefighters and get information about volunteering. Lunch will be available from What the Cluck Food Truck, famous for Nashville Style Chicken and delicious southern sides.
