A year ago today, I was in New York City, right next to Ground Zero...In one of the hotels that overlooks the site. I climbed to remember. I was honored to climb 110 stories within feet of where our Brothers climbed on September 11th. The same Brothers we continue to climb for each year.

The benefit was first and foremost about the Brotherhood in SD, and the firefighters having a good time. The byproduct of that was to raise money for the National Firefighters endowment and the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation.

Below you will find information specific to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation Memorial Weekend. Whether you are a blogger, web site administrator, or firefighter you will find information and links to help you participate in the weekend even if you cannot attend. The email is actually a correspondence from Dave Statter who is in charge of media relations at the NFFF.

The National Fallen Firefighters Foundation hosts events all over the Nation all year long. This years calendar is beginning to fill up with some of their great events. From 9/11 Memorial Stair Climbs, to NASCAR races, to Golf tournaments, and a survivors conference which was just held. The Memorial Weekend will be in October.

Come see Superman & Lex Luthor together: Or maybe it's more like Austin Powers & Dr. Evil. Dave Statter meets Rhett Fleitz. Somehow I ended up on the same bill with THE Fire Critic at the Ohio Fire & Emergency Services Foundation's 2012 Leadership Conference.

If you think you got some good reason for not wearing this or for not doing things the right way write it down. Because I need to read that to your widow. Cause I'm not going to know what to say. You say it for me. - Chicago Chief of Training Peter VanDorpe
