During the 2019 Muscular Dystrophy Association Fill the Boot campaign, the members of the Butts County Fire Department took to the streets and continued a 65-year tradition. “The firefighters of Butts County Fire Department have gone above and beyond for MDA’s families during this year’s Fill the Boot campaign,” said Bridgett Monroe, executive director. “We are so grateful for their dedication and for the generosity of those in the Butts County community who have helped to raise critical funds to help transform the lives of kids and adults with muscular dystrophy, ALS and related muscle-debilitating diseases." They also help send more than 100 local kids to “the best week of the year” at MDA summer camp at Camp Twin Lakes in Rutledge, Ga. — all at no cost to their families, Monroe said.
