This year marks the 11th year that TVF&R/Local 1660 firefighters have participated in the Scott Firefighter Stairclimb - the largest firefighter competition in the world. The Scott Firefighter Stairclimb takes place at the 788 foot high Columbia Center in downtown Seattle and includes running 69 flights of stairs in full turnouts, boots, and air pack. Our team members prepared for months for this ultimate test of endurance and strength and this year’s team will have 50 TVF&R firefighter who are taking the day off to compete. We are proud to say that over the years, our team - one of the largest in the competition - has won many of the top team and individual honors. More importantly, we have raised almost $75,000 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. This year’s goal is to raise $15,000!
