Riding for 9/11


On August 30th, that's this coming Wednesday, the City of Kent will be welcoming firefighters from California as they ride across the country to honor the victims of 9/11. They will also be raising money for two great causes- The Leary Firefighters Foundation and the Wounded Warriors Project. They are riding bicycles from LA to NYC and have already been on the road for a month! One of the riders is a graduate of Kent Roosevelt and currently a Captain with the Fullerton Fire Department! They will be rolling into Kent around 4pm on the 30th, so if you are in the area, drop on by! Please stop by to donate to the cause or just to say hello and show your support. They will be coming in from the West on S.R.59 and then left into downtown on S.Water St. to the Home Savings Plaza. Hoping to see a lot of people out and showing that they have not forgotten!
