Mid August was when the Muscular Dystrophy (MDA) Summer Campout was held in Occidental CA, for children that suffer from this debilitating disease. Firefighter Dennis Rutkowski along with police and firefighters from various agencies around the Bay Area attended on Tuesday, as part of the Hometown Heroes segment of the camp activities. Dennis spent the day interacting with the kids and helped make their camp experience as worthwhile as possible. Along with this, Dennis participated in a recent American Cancer Society 24-hour relay run, with other fire department members from Marin Fire agencies in order to help raise money for cancer research.
