Another Fight for Air Climb is in the books! 🙌
Savage firefighters participated in the Fight For Air Climb hosted by the American Lung Association in Minnesota on March 7. They climbed 53 flights of stairs, roughly 1,272 steps, at the Capella Tower in downtown Minneapolis while wearing full turnout gear, which is 60 pounds of added weight. Collectively, the Minneapolis event raised over $160,000 and had 491 people climb to the top. The money raised goes towards education, research, and advocacy for various lung diseases and cancer. This was Savage Fire's third year participating and they hope to continue to do it every year.
