Portsmouth, NH
— The High-Hanover parking garage was full all day Saturday as shoppers and
visitors strolled about the downtown.
This was good news for Rye call firefighter Sarah Jarvis, who spent
three hours in the middle stairwell in full gear raising money for the 23rd
annual Scott Firefighter Stairclimb at the Columbia Center. The event supports
the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's fight against cancer.
Jarvis climbed up and down the five flights,
stopping only to talk with people about the fundraiser, hoping for a donation
to be placed in one of several firefighter boots.
Jarvis obtained City Council permission to use
the parking garage and she was quick to allay any fears if people were
concerned seeing her climbing with about 75 pounds of gear.
