Another year of supporting families in our community comes to an end. Thank you to everyone who supported us in the past year and who came out to help with our needy families initiative.

Looks like our President is having a ball helping out at Camp Courage! This program is dedicated to teaching young women about career opportunites as First Responders.

Did we mention how much fun the Camp Courage instructors are having? Many of them will tell you that this experience is just as important to them as it is for the students, and they are inspired by the dedication and perseverance of every student involved.

Thanks to our Ladder Sitter, Derek Degaust, and all our volunteers who gave up time this weekend to raise money for MD!

Excluding the boot money, this Ladderathon raised $24k for Muscular Dystrophy. And after several days of grueling weather, it was very well earned!

[Westphal-Cole Harbour Firefighters Association @wchffa]

We are here until 2 raising money for Muscular Dystrophy! Come fill out a ballot from our friends at Q104!

He is still up there! Come by and drop a buck in our boots for Muscular Dystrophy this weekend.
