Alex City Fire and Rescue raises money for MDA camp

The Alexander City Fire and Rescue Department raised $3,600 in May to benefit the Alabama Muscular Dystrophy Association to cover the cost of sending kids to summer camp at Camp ASCCA.

 Submitted / The Outlook

In three weeks Alabama children with muscle disease will be arriving at Camp ASCCA to enjoy a week of activities while connecting with friends and taking new steps toward independence.

For children living with muscle disease, MDA Summer Camp is a magical place where anything is possible — from swimming to ziplining and horseback riding to dancing under a disco ball — all while gaining valuable life skills.
