On Saturday, firefighters from the Idlewild Volunteer Fire Department took to the streets to Fill the Boot for MDA! They raised $3,220 in this year's drive, topping their total from last year. Idlewild is the first department to complete their drive in the 2011 competition between Matthews, Mint Hill and Idlewild, and we'd say they are off to a great start!
Who do you think will win this year's competition? If you haven't joined in to help these departments out yet, you can support Matthews and Mint Hill this Saturday, November 5! Drive through the intersection of Highway 51 and Lawyers Road to donate to Mint Hill's boot drive and the intersection of John St. and Trade St. in downtown to support Matthews! Or, park nearby and say hello!
Don't forget to snap a picture with your favorite firefighter and send to us at kdove@mdausa.org.
