SMC

 I will be participating in the Scott Firefighter Stairclimb on March 10th. Please support me with a donation. Our efforts will help make a big difference in the fight against blood cancers. Thank you for your generosity!

* I'm not sure if this is bad form but  I wanted to try to get as many donations as I could.  This is for a worthy cause and I do it every year for both my Uncle and Grandpa that died from cancer.  



Thanks in advance.  And sorry if this is not appropriate. Wasn't sure..

SMC,

It's that time a year and some if you may have received a personal email.

I will be participating in a fundraiser to support the Leukemia Lymphoma Society.
I will be climbing 69 Flights of Stairs, 1311 Steps, and over 788 vertical feet in full Firefighting Gear!

All proceeds go to support the research to stop blood cancers!  

Thank You to last years supporters Tom Barnes ( Collecture) and the Soda Jerk Wo!


Donations are tax deductible!

I will be climbing to honor my grandfather who died in 2009 from Leukemia...

Thank You TomFromJersey!

I have reached my fundraising goal of $1,500.00.  I have raised over $1800.

Appreciate the support of SMC Site!

Training Update:

I have been training pretty hard anywhere between 300-350 flights of stairs a week on a stair mill.  I'm carrying between 55-60lbs, and completing 69 flights of stairs in about 17 minutes, and average of 79 steps per minute!

It's that time a year again!  As many have contributed in the past I will be raising money to find a cure for cancer.

Last year's fundraising was at it's best for me in which I raised over $2300 for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society.

A big thanks to ALL the members that have contributed in the past.  A special thanks to Funtronics for already donating as my first business sponser.

Event:

I will be climbing in full firefighter protective gear approximately weighing 65lbs.  The Stair Climb is the largest firefighing event in the country raising 2.23 million dollars for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society.  69 flights of stairs, 766 vertical feet, 1311 Steps.

Thanks to SMC for always being a big part of this!

If you would like to donate the link is below.  When page loads click the "Donate Now" button below my picture.

Jared,

You are a little bit closer to your goal. Good luck on the fundraising and the climb!  Maybe you should put helium in your air bottle to lighten the load.  biggrin Cool laugh

Hope you break the 20 minute mark.
