The second benefit takes place on July 27th at 6:30pm at Harkins Theater in Sedona, AZ.
Both events are sponsored by Guidance Aviation of Prescott, AZ Guidance has purchased 299 tickets at the Prescott Valley benefit and 148 tickets at the Sedona benefit to assist local benefit hosts Diane Travis and Anessa Andrews to raise funds for theWildland Firefighters Foundation.
The Disney Movie “Planes: Fire and Rescue” focuses on the wildland firefighting community. The support group, Spouses and Partners of Wildland Firefightershas partnered with Disney and movie theaters around the country for private showings of the film with proceeds going to the Wildland Firefighter Foundation. Everyone is invited. All ticket sales will go directly to help families of firefighters killed in the line of duty and to assist injured firefighters and their families. This is a national effort supporting firefighters throughout the country.
“If you want to support them (Wildland Firefighters Foundation), then I guarantee you’re supporting us,” stated Incident Commander, Carpenter 1 Wildland Firefighters.
“As the wife of a career wildland firefighter, I believe in what the Wildland Firefighter Foundation does for the families of fallen and injured wildland firefighters across the country. I couldn’t think of a better way to support a foundation that I truly believe in while going out and having fun with the family,” states Diane Travis, Prescott event host.
