Firefighters Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser – Good Food for a Good Cause

I recently wrote a post for Sundance Resort’s Blog about their annual Firefighters Pancake Breakfast that was held this past Saturday. It’s a fundraiser that benefits the local North Fork Fire Department, our small emergency services provider. It was great to get to know my community fire fighting force a little better, especially since many of them are volunteers.

My neighbor has been the volunteer fire chief for the North Fork Fire Department for over a decade. Through that position he has trained for thousands of hours on first response, swift water rescue, technical ropes rescue, wildfire prevention and response as well as traditional structure fire response. Car accidents, medical emergencies, avalanche crises, he has dealt with all of these and more, all for free.
Last Saturday as I enjoyed the best pancakes of my life at Sundance Resort, I was happy to support this amazing group of people who work so hard to keep my home and family safe all year long.
Thank you to all the service men and women out there. Your sacrifice is greatly appreciated.
