Jeep Rogers Family YMCA

This September, we’re challenging our Y community to climb 110 floors — 2,071 steps in tribute to the lives lost on September 11, 2001.
The challenge represents the 110 stories of the World Trade Center and serves as a way to honor the 343 firefighters, 63 police officers and 8 emergency medical personnel who lost their lives that day.
Set a goal. Take it one step at a time. Remember those we lost.

"Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and turn away from evil." -Proverbs 3:7
