Red Bandanna Stairhike
About the event
What would you do in the last hour of your life? Where would you be? Who would remember it? What would it look like?
On September 11, 2001 Welles Crowder saved many lives in the South Tower of the World Trade Center, not once thinking about his own life!

The Power of the Red Bandanna. In 2014 the Boston College football team wore uniforms and helmets with a red bandanna design. They played and beat #9 USC on national TV!

Let’s Roll!
Never Forget!
One of the nicest thing anybody ever did for me- a very kind woman who did The Red Bandanna Stairhike, offered to place the red bandanna I had, on Welles name at the 9-11 Memorial in New York City! Then sent me a pic! The pic for this event!
We will do 19 staircases around the Silver Lake Reservoir. 19 represents Welles’ jersey number.
17 going up, one going down, and one going up and down! 17 represents the number of floors Welles climbed up to rescue other people, after leading the first group of people to stairs that led them to elevators and evacuating the World Trade Center!
