Commemorative Events Across California Honor Lives Lost on 9/11

On the 22nd anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, events are being held across the greater Sacramento area to commemorate the victims and honor the first responders. Sacramento regional firefighters will climb 110 flights of stairs to symbolize the final steps of the New York City firefighters who lost their lives. The Cal Expo Sept. 11 Memorial Plaza, West Sacramento memorial, Lodi memorial ceremony, and Stanislaus County memorial ceremonies are also taking place. Additionally, the Sacramento-based nonprofit Move America Forward is organizing a packathon to assemble care packages for troops.
