Firefighters fight muscular disease
Everett firefighters will take to the streets today and Saturday to raise money for muscular dystrophy, a disease that affects both children and adults. The firefighters will be asking motorists to “Fill the Boot” to benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association.

Here’s where you can find firefighters:
* 3-7:30 p.m. today, Broadway and Pacific Avenue.
* 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, Evergreen Way and Fourth Avenue W.
