Zion Professional Firefighters IAFF Local 1999 would like to thank everyone who travelled along Sheridan road on Friday July 17th and donated for our 2009 MDA Fill the Boot fundraiser.  This year's fundraiser yielded a record take of $3,700 to be donated to the Muscular Dystrophy Association. 

Special thanks must be given to all who helped make this possible.  First and foremost to the citizens of Zion and all those travelling through who donated money to this worthy cause.  Also to the Zion Fire and Rescue Department and Chief John Lewis who allowed the use of department vehicles and personnel.  The Zion Public Works who provided and set up electronic signs to tell travellers of the Fill the Boot.  Commisioner Frank Flammini and his wife who provided the use of their bookstore to store equipment during the event.  And finally to the City of Zion who supported Local 1999 in their efforts to raise money for MDA. 

Thanks again to everyone involved.  We look forward to another successful Fill the Boot in 2010.
