Dear Family and Friends,

For the 11th-year in a row I will be participating in the LLS Firefighter Stairclimb on March 10, 2024.  This is a timed, vertical challenge (the largest such competition in the world) whereby I will climb 69 floors (1,356 steps) in FULL GEAR AND ON AIR.  I will be joined this year by 5 others from the Templeton Fire Department as we make our trek to Seattle, Washington to yet again conquer the Columbia Tower.  This year is very special to me as I will be doing the climb in honor of my own mom, JoAnn Wall, who continues to battle Stage 4 lung cancer. I’m not only climbing for Mom, but I’m also climbing in memory of Uncle Bob Thompson who I first climbed for in 2014. Not only am I a participant, but I will also be representing California for the 8th year in a row as a State Ambassador for the LLS Firefighter Stairclimb.

I am once again asking you to help by supporting my fundraising efforts with a donation, this year my fundraising goal is $10,000!  I greatly appreciate your support in getting to this goal and will keep you posted on my progress!  Although this is not a blood cancer this is my way as a son and a Firefighter to help find a cure for ALL cancers.  Thank you again for the support on my climb.  Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions.
