Firefighters from the La Crosse Fire Department and other local departments took to the streets to raise money for their annual 'Fill The Boot' fundraiser. The firefighters stood on the corners of 4th and La Crosse Street collection donations for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. The money raised will go towards treatment and research for Muscular Dystrophy; a muscular disease that causes muscle weakness and decreased mobility over time making it difficult to do every tasks. "Because of money raised over the years the people that run the MDA have said that instead of going to funerals they're going to high school graduations and even weddings", says La Crosse Fire Dept. engineer Todd English.
