Up to the challenge

Firefighters with the Snoqualmie Department of Public Safety-Fire Division recently took part in the Firefighter Challenge, a race up to 69 floors of the Bank of America Tower in Seattle to raise money for The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The Snoqualmie firefighters want to thank local residents who donated to the cause. In all, they raised $2,929, placing eighth out of 46 teams who took part in the event. The Firefighter Challenge was held March 17. Pictured are, from left, Jake Koehnen, Brian Dillon, Brian Busby and Leif Anderson.
