UPWEY’S firefighters took to the stairs of the Eureka Tower on the weekend, raising more than $1200.
Upwey CFA young guns Ashley Nealon, Jack Spooner, Lincoln Bulkeley and Nathan Polderman raced up the stairs in their wildfire kits – all making it to the top in less than 18 minutes.
Those with a little more experience under their belts carried the breathing apparatus on their journey to the top.
James Butler, Noel Nealon, Sean Radford, and Shane O’Brien all made it to the top in under 28 minutes.
“Us oldies all carried the breathing apparatus with Sean putting the face mask on,” Noel Nealon said.
“He got to the top floor still with 15 bar of air left.”
