Fill the Boot Competition Heats Up!

After Idlewild's successful Fill the Boot drive, we have all been anxiously awaiting the results of the competition between Matthews, Mint Hill and Idlewild! And the results are in!

Idlewild's $3,220 boot drive put them in 3rd place for the competition. They exceeded their goal and last year's total! Congratulations Idlewild!

On November 5, about three miles separated Matthews and Mint Hill as they filled their boots for MDA! Mint Hill surpassed their total from last year and raised $3800, putting them in 2nd place in the competition. It was a great day in the streets in Mint Hill!

Just down the road, the Matthews Fire Department had a great day and collected $6,551.84! That means that Matthews is our winner once again this year! Congratulations to all Matthews Firefighters for a job well done!

One of our favorite MDA families lives in Matthews and spent the entire day helping to collect money! Thanks to Noah, Natalie, Stacy & David Sentivan for supporting the department!

Thanks to everyone from the Idlewild Fire Department, Mint Hill Fire Department and Matthews Fire Department for making 2011 another successful year through your Fill the Boot drives! The three departments combined raised more than $13,571 for MDA!
