The Professional Fire Fighters Association of Midland (PFAM) is organizing an event to honor the memory of 9/11, in collaboration with local responders.
According to Eventbrite, PFAM will host the 2024 Tall City Memorial Stair Climb & Benefit Concert at Centennial Park on September 7 from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. The community is encouraged to honor fallen heroes and raise funds for local first responders.
The event will feature a stair climb at Astound Broadband Stadium in the morning and a benefit concert featuring Carly Pearce. The event is being promoted under the slogan "One day. Two incredible events." All proceeds will support a local first responders benevolence fund. Tickets range from $50 to $100, with children under 12 receiving free admission.

"The Tall City 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb is a way to honor those first responders and make certain that we never forget. The ultimate sacrifice was made by those fire, police, and EMS personnel and we climb because they climbed," the event states.
According to her website, Pearce is a country artist from Kentucky who toured with Blake Shelton in 2023 and Tim McGraw this year. The singer is known for her single "I Hope You’re Happy Now" from her self-titled 2020 album and released her new album, Hummingbird, in June.
