Thanks to Stanwood for supporting MDA

To the citizens of Stanwood-Camano:

Stanwood-Camano Professional Fire Fighters IAFF locals 4033 and 4086 would like to thank our community for their support of our recent “Fill the Boot” campaign to support The Muscular Dystrophy Association.

On May 14, 15 and 16 firefighters were at the Stanwood QFC and Haggen locations collecting donations and you helped us raise more than $2,400! Proceeds will help support MDA services and research programs.

Thank you.

A.J. Johnson
