Manchester – A large group of people came together at the Brady Sullivan Plaza office building at 1000 Elm St. to repell from the top down to the ground.

Spectators watched as the participants came down, and cheered to encourage many of them.

Some of the participants wore costumes. Former U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte was one of the first to go “over the edge” on Tuesday.

The event was sponsored by United Way of Greater Nashua.
