[ARCHIVED] Giving Muscular Dystrophy the Boot

The Newton Fire Department will be participating in the "Fill the Boot" campaign on Saturday, August 12th from 9 a.m. to noon at the intersection of W 4th St S & 1st Ave W. During this event fire fighters hit the streets where they ask pedestrians, motorists and other passers-by to contribute – money in the boot – for MDA (Muscular Dystrophy Association).

In previous years, the Newton Association of Professional Firefighters have raised about $2,000 during its annual one-day collection.
