Join the Roscoe Fire Department and local first responders for our 10th-annual 9/11 Memorial Walk as we honor the brave lives lost on September 11, 2001, and pay tribute to the legacy of service, sacrifice, and unity that defines our community.

This year’s 6.5-mile course brings together area firefighters, law enforcement, EMS, military personnel, and community members to stand united in remembrance.

We're happy to partner with Dust & Diesel Coffee for this event. Participants will be entered to win one of a few prizes.

If you are an area agency wanting to walk and help with the escort, please email leadership@roscoefire.org to coordinate.

Public inquiries can be made by sending our Facebook page a message. We will answer your question as quickly as we can.

Media inquiries should be directed to media@roscoefire.org
