To help energize this year’s effort, three-year-old Aiden from Waltham visited Central Station firefighters. Aiden battles Duchenne’s Muscular Dystrophy, and met with firefighters to get a tour of the station, including the trucks and equipment, as announced in the Firefighters newsletter.

Waltham Firefighters Local 866 take part in “Fill the Boot” every year as part of the IAFF’s 60-year tradition of supporting MDA.

The drive takes place at the intersection of Trapello Road and Lexington Street on Sept. 25.

The drive will be conducted by volunteers from the Waltham Firefighters Local 866, and last year Local 866 raised more than $12,000. This was double the amount raised the previous year.
