Most of you know that I recently became a volunteer firefighter in my town. It is something that I wanted to do for a long time and finally decided to do it. Anyway, in joining, I've gotten a chance to meet some great people and help my community. A group of us have decided to partake in the annual National Stair Climb for Fallen Fire Fighters. This is a great cause because all donations received benefit the families of those who have died in the line of duty. Initially, this was created to benefit the families of those who died during the 9/11 attacks, but now for the first time it has been expanded to all families affected by a line of duty death.
This Saturday, October 10th, myself and 10 other members of our department are going to Citi Field in NY for this event. We have to climb a total of 2200 stairs which is equivalent to 110 stories. This is symbolic in that it represents each of the participants completing the 110 story climb that those who died in the towers on 9/11 could not complete. Some choose to do it in regular street clothes, others like myself and the rest of my team will be doing it in full gear. I was hoping that maybe some of the regulars in the group here might be interested in supporting me and this cause. Any donation is appreciated. Thank you in advance.
