The Nerd Word – Fire Hose Race

10th Annual Fire Hose Race 

to benefit

Children’s Hospital Burn Camps Program!

The Burn Camps Program was created in 1983 to meet the psychological and rehabilitation needs of the child and family following a burn injury. The Child who sustains a burn injury is impacted for the rest of his or her life. After a burn injury, a child can anticipate reconstructive surgeries and on-going physical and occupational therapy. During their growth and development the child will also need resources to meet the challenges of growing up in a world where external beauty is valued.

The Burn Camps Program has grown into a series of camp programs to meet these needs by providing challenging activities, opportunities to form lasting friendships, adult mentorship and goal set-ting opportunities.

Join us on February 26th, 2016

Here’s how the Race Works!

  • The Fire Hose Race consists of 30+ Teams of 5 spaced along 50’ of fire hose while working as a team to maneuver through a 15 gate slalom course. Race teams may include both skiers and snowboarders.
  • Along with carrying the hose, each team member is required to wear a bunker coat and a fire helmet.
  • Each team will complete 2 runs and the lowest combined time wins the event and will be awarded the traveling Fire Hose Race Trophy to display until the next year’s event.
