With boots on the ground at ten intersections from 3 PM until 6 PM, firefighters in high-visibility vests are out to collect donations—and they’re aiming higher than last year’s national ranking. Last year’s haul? Over $102K—eighth in the country. This year? They’re gunning for top five. Firefighter Trevor McLean says it’s more than just fundraising—it’s community service, showing up before emergencies even happen. See them, support them, and help make a real difference.
