FIGHT FOR AIR CLIMB
On April 16, 2016 a group of firefighters from all over Metro Atlanta will step up to the challenge of climbing 51 floors of stairs to help raise money for the American Lung Association. Fayette County Department of Fire and Emergency Services will be one of those teams. Last year Fayette County dominated the competition with medals, largest team, and most money raised. We want this year to be NO DIFFERENT. With this this being the Ten Year Anniversary of the climb we want to make team Fayette Fire shine. We have members from Peachtree City Fire and the City of Fayetteville Fire departments joining us this year. The Fire Department is a family that some are chosen for.
The American Lung Association is an organization close to my heart as my Son lived his childhood with Asthma.
The hardest part is telling a child that he or she cannot play as much as they want because of limitations that could put them in a life threatening position. A child SHOULD be able to do as much as they want. Please help Fayette Fire help all the children that have a difficult time playing and be all that they want to be. Life for anybody should not be A Fight For Air. Thanks again for all the support in raising Fayette to the top.
