Volunteer Firemen Shake their Boots For A Good Cause
By Firefighter Wendy Liu
April 12, 2011
Five Sayville and one Central Islip volunteer firemen participated in a fundraiser at the Long Island Women's Expo on April 9th to benefit the Suffolk County Volunteer Firefighters Burn Center Fund. Because there weren't enough models to put on the planned fashion show fundraiser, the promoter changed the fundraiser into a "Hot Fireman Show". All of the guys were good sports and agreed to "shake their boots" for a good cause despite the change in plans.
On Saturday, April 9th, the guys rehearsed for a little while. Two of the firefighters were treated to a spray tan by Suvara, while the other volunteers were promised spray tans after their performance. 5PM it was show time! One by one, five firefighters wearing their turnout gear and no shirts strutted onto the stage to the funky 70s song "Fire" by Ohio Players. They did their own individual flirty moves before taking their spot on the stage. After the last firefighter was in place, they took off their jackets revealing their bare chests to the delight of the women in the audience. They continued with their routine and joined the audience for photos while donations were collected for the Burn Center. Once the last photo was taken and all donations were collected, the rest of the firefighters headed back over to Suvara to get their promised spray tans and headed home.
All of these volunteer firefighters had a blast and were happy to collect money for the Suffolk County Volunteer Firefighters Burn Center Fund to help support special clinical and research initiatives.
