As we approach the anniversary of the attacks on 9/11, there are events in the Bay area to show your patriotism, and even get in some serious steps.

This is the tough one. The 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb takes place Wednesday morning starting at 6 am at the Bank of America Plaza on Kennedy Blvd in Tamp. If you think you have what it take to climb the tower’s stairs from ground level to the top (and some will do that in full gear and packs) click here for this free event.

Hillsborough County Fire Rescue, Consumer And Veteran Services and the Veterans Council of Hillsborough County have scheduled their annual Patriot Day: 9/11 Remembrance event for 10:30 a.m. Wednesday. Go to Veterans Memorial Park And Rear Admiral LeRoy Collins, Jr. Museum on 301.

If your commute takes you across the Courtney Campbell Causeway Wednesday afternoon, hundreds of people are expected to line the Causeway waving flags starting at 5:30 pm, and they expect to be there through 9 pm. The Second Annual Line The Bridge Event is open to everyone, and is free. Get there early and be aware of rush hour traffic.

One of the largest ceremonies will take place at 10 am at Curlew Hills Memory Gardens in Palm Harbor on Wednesday, and they also will light the night Tuesday and Wednesday evening. The address is 1750 Curlew Rd, Palm Harbor.

If you would like to share your memories of 9/11, please send us an open mic on the Dove app at @1055theDove, and to all, thank you for your service.
