Anacortes Firefighters are once again participating in the Scott Firefighter Stair Climb, to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

The annual event, which draws firefighters from throughout the Nortwest, is a race up 69 floors of Seattle’s Columbia Center Tower.  Participants wear full firefighting gear, including self-contained breathing apparatus.

“The Fidalgo Island Firefighters” team is made up of members of Anacortes Firefighters (IAFF Local 1537), and firefighters from Skagit County Fire District 13.

Fundraising efforts are underway, with a pancake breakfast at Anacortes Fire Department Station 1 (1016 13th Street, Anacortes) on Saturday, February 26 from 7:30-10:30 am.  Donations will be accepted on site.
