Last Friday firefighters with the Seattle Fire Department helped raise money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association by “Filling the Boot” at major intersections, including 15th and Market here in Ballard. Now the MDA says it raised $66,758, up from $56,000 last year. “I was sincerely touched by the level of generosity during such tough economic times,” said MDA’s Rachel Kanter, who thanks everyone for their donations.
