Thanks to Lt Boulet and Retired FF Brooks
On September 21st, 2010 Lt. Mark Boulet and Retired Firefighter Mike Brooks raised funds through the YMCA of Auburn. Lt. Boulet rode 100 miles on a stationary bike and Ret. FF Brooks was jogging right next to him on a treadmill for nearly 8 hours. YMCA raised money by having their members make donation to either ride or jog next to either of the fire fighters in there journeys for up to a half hour at a time. Between the Auburn Firefighter’s and the members of the YMCA, they were able to raise $500 dollars with the Auburn Fire Fighters Children's fund matching that amount. A total of $1,000 were raised and all of the proceeds went to the Healing Tree at the Dempsey Center which is the support center for kids at through the Dempsey Foundation.
