The challenges facing local news organizations are very real. That's why reader support matters more than ever. If you believe independent journalism matters, make a contribution today and help us reach our summer fundraising goal of $25,000 by August 9.
There’s no denying it: Firefighters are damn sexy. And the Fired Up for Kids organization knows a good thing when it finds it: The group’s Colorado Firefighter Calendar has raised almost $100,000 to date for the Children’s Hospital Burn Center, and those numbers will only continue to heat up tonight at the 2008 Colorado Firefighter Calendar Release Party.
“It’s going to be a great girls’ night out,” enthuses Fired Up for Kids founder Kirsten Hamling. “We’re going to bring out the ’07 firefighters, just to say thank you, and then we’ll announce, individually, all of the firefighters that are on the 2008 calendar.” Yowza! A runway show and bachelor auction are highlights of the evening, and VIP ticket-holders get to enjoy a private meet-and-greet with the monthly models at 7 p.m. before the general-admission party starts at 8
at Rise Nightclub, 1909 Blake Street. Tickets are $25 to $30, $55 to $60 for VIP, and are available at www.ticketswest.com and King Soopers stores; for information or to purchase a calendar, visit www.firedupforkids.org.
