The Prince George Fire Fighter's
In support of

| Since 1988 the Prince Goerge Fire Fighters have raised funds for charity by holding an annual Harley Davidson raffle. |
| Each year the first prize in the draw was a Harley "Heritage Soft Tail Classic", with the second prize being a leather jacket and the third prize being leather chaps. |
|
|
Each year between December and March about 3,000 tickets are sold raising approximately $28,000.00 which is donated to the Prince George Hospital to purchase much need items. In past years the funds raised went to the
Muscular Dystrophy Association but since 1996 money raised has been given to the
Spirit Of The North Health Care Foundation as a way of using
money raised in Prince George to help a greater number of people locally.
Fire fighters Fred Wilkinson, Kevin Woodhouse, Kevin Pigeon and Captain Gerry Simpson work together to coordinate the Harley Raffle on behalf of the fire fighters and the Hospital Foundation. |
|
Each year about 50 members participated in selling tickets at various outlets around Prince George. (Tickets can also be purchased at the Harley Shop and at Fire Hall #1.) |
| Fire fighters Earle Steele and Wayne Wells proudly display the M.D. Harley Davidson Raffle sign while fire fighter Jeff Brado sits on the grand prize in 1992, a Harley Soft-Tail Classic. |
