Press Release
February 20, 2009
It is our sincere regret to report that $2000.00 in proceeds for our Annual Summer Bash party has been reported missing. The Lincoln Park Police Department is investigating the loss and we are hopeful that the funds will turn up.
The Lincoln Park Fire Fitness Summer Bash has been an annual fundraiser for 17 years. The party has helped raise thousands of dollars for fitness programs for children in the city, such as Lincoln Park Little League, Senior Softball, Bowl for Burns, Lincoln Park Junior Rails, Lincoln Park High School Fitness Scholarship, and University of Michigan Children’s Burn Camp to name a few.
Regardless of this unfortunate situation, the party will go on as planned and we expect it to be a success. As always, we look forward to a successful fundraiser to help fund fitness programs in Lincoln Park. Anyone interested in attending the party or to make a donation, please contact Steve Heim or Jim Frasier at (313)381-1975.
