Trot for the Troops

The preparations for the "Appleton Fire Department's Trot for the Troops" are basically finalized. All runners are scheduled, and the slots are all filled. The event will take place Wednesday, May 13th from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm at the Gold's Gym at 2700 W. College Ave. There is a reasonable fund-raising goal of $2000 for this event. If anyone is interested in donating to this wonderful cause there are several ways you can do so:

1. Go online to (www.homesforourtroops.org/goto/appletonfire) and donate using a credit car

2. Go to Gold's Gym on the day of the event and donate using cash, check, or credit card

3. Write out a check payable to "Homes For Our Troops" and send it to Adam Hansen at Fire Station 1 by May 12th

Homes for our Troops is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, so all contributions are tax-deductible. By giving very little you can help build a home for someone who has given so much to our country. Thanks again to everyone for the support they have given to help make this event a success.
