 The Firefighters Burn Institute and the Sacramento Ballet have partnered to create a 2012 Firefighter/Ballet Calendar. Both charities have had calendars in the past, but this new calendar will be very different and exciting! Every month will feature a Firefighter and a Dancer together in a very artistic pose! Renowned local photographer, Keith Sutter will be using his talent to capture the breath taking images of the Firefighters and the Dancers together.

The calendar will be a fundraiser for both charities and one of the ways we are raising funds is to have an online voting contest to pick the winners from the Firefighting Community and the Sacramento Ballet. Each organization has a web page dedicated for this. There are 19 Firefighter Contestants and 21 Ballet Dancer Contestants. Everyone is encouraged to go to both pages and vote for their favorite Firefighter and Dancer. Each vote costs $2.00 and you may vote for as many contestants and as often as you wish! Please support both of these very worthwhile charities and vote!!!

We hope to have the calendars available for purchase by mid October. They will be available online at the websites of the Firefighters Burn Institut and the Sacramento Ballet. The calendars will also be available at local retail outlets and events hosted by both charities.

 

The on line voting pages are:

Isn't the whole point of firefighter calendars is to see, you know, shirtless firefighters?

Well we used to do that type of calendar. But we have decided to do something a lot more classy and partnering with the Sacramento Ballet should accomplish that. Our calendar will definitely be a "one of a kind!"
