Firefighter's Challenge

I wanted to share some links to local videos of the Firefighter's Cold Water Challenge that has been heating up (well its not really that warm but quite the opposite) in Western Mass in the past month. What is this challenge all about?
     Local firehouses are challenging each other in some friendly competition to raise money mostly for the National Fallen Firefighter's Foundation. Some of the firehouses are raising money for their local Relay For Life teams, and other charities as well. Basically, what happens is that one department calls on another department, or individuals within departments, to meet their challenge within 48 hours or pay up.
    Wonderful idea for these charities, and the rivalry is well, heating up. In a cold way. 

Enjoy!

Most recently, the video from the town of Easthampton.


                                                                         

Chesterfield Fire Department


Goshen Fire Department



Fireground 360- WMass first responder community-this one is pretty funny-with the bloopers in the beginning of the video and involves a "hostage" in the challenge



Bernardston Fire Department-note this is from a personal facebook page, so hopefully the settings will be on "public" viewing status


 I will add more videos to this post as soon as the challenges are accepted and become available online for viewing.
