Description of Race Events

The 5th Annual Fight for Air Climb, formerly known as Tackle the Tower, will take place on February 27, 2010 at the Wells Fargo Center in downtown Salt Lake City. The Fight For Air Climb is a 23 floor climb, which is a fundraiser for the American Lung Association in Utah. The funds raised help to support and sustain our programs: N-O-T on Tobacco, Open Airways for Schools, Camp Wyatt Asthma Camp, Workplace Tobacco Policies, as well as help fight for clean air.
During our event the Wells Fargo Center opens its stairwells to the ALAU and participants. Take advantage of the chance to climb the stairs of Utah's tallest building while raising money for a good cause. Since the event has a limit as to how many participants can climb, we ask each climber to raise a minimum of $100 to help support our programs.
