SFF Participates in High Street Hustle

(August 15, 2015)  The Salem Fire Foundation (SFF) participated in Salem Health and Gallagher Fitness Resources‘ High Street Hustle with a team and display table at the event.  Hundreds of runners attended the 5k/8k walk/run to help create more awareness of heart disease.

The race kicked off at 7:30 a.m. at the Capitol Mall and three routes (5k, 8k and children’s run) took place in stretches of High Street They even rerouted cars on part of Highway 22.  The run was a 70s theme and the Salem Fire Foundation had a team of three.

The SFF booth displayed brochures, new t-shirts, PulsePoint information and showed one of the individual CPR teaching kits.  

“We talked to a lot of people,” said volunteer Ryan Gail, who worked the booth.  “Most people seemed really interested in helping the foundation. They even sold a few t-shirts on site.
