Ten Tri-City firefighters will be pulling on their gear and oxygen tanks on Sunday, March 24, to climb 48 storeys for the BC Lung Foundation.
The annual Climb the Wall fundraiser, which takes place at the Sheraton Vancouver Wall Centre (1000 Burrard St., Vancouver), will see the following smoke-eaters from the Coquitlam and Port Moody fire/rescue departments join in:
Coquitlam
- Ben Gutowski
- Nikolas Heiti
- Chris Mathison (team captain)
- Scott Wilson
Port Moody
- Katie Blewman
- Grant McDonald
- Rourke O’briain (team captain)
- Sean Rutledge
- Isaac Sherley

The aim of the campaign is to raise money for and build awareness about lung health.
According to the foundation, funds raised from Climb the Wall 2024 will be dedicated to sending kids from across British Columbia to asthma camps.
