On Thursday, March 7th, AARBF’s Elisa Brooke and Katrina Arthur spent the day with fire departments located within California’s central valley for the annual Central Valley Burn Relay. We had a wonderful time visiting with our firefighter partners, saying hello to old friends and making new ones. We truly appreciate the time spent together and being able to share more about the foundation’s prevention and survivor services programs. We are honored to have many firefighters volunteer for the foundation and the relays provide a great opportunity for those who are interested in volunteering to learn more about us.
Thank you to our relay participants: Fresno Firefighters, Local 202, Clovis Firefighters, Coalinga Firefighters Association, Sanger Firefighters Association, Fresno Fire Chief’s Foundation, Reedley Firefighters, Fresno-Kings Firefighters, Kingsburg Firefighters, and the Madera-Mariposa-Merced CALFire Unit Firefighters.
We also thank burn survivor, Peter Reynaga, for sharing your story with the departments and for the CRMC burn unit staff for your support of the Central Valley Burn Relay.
