Kids Challenge new part of Heritage Days firefighter event

McCOOK, Nebraska -- The Red Willow Western Rural firefighters have extended their Heritage Days challenge to include a Kid's Challenge on Saturday immediately following the annual RWWR Fire Department Challenge.

Registration for children 5-12 years of age begins at 2 p.m. Contestants will guide a ball through the goal using a fire hose. The fee is $3, with proceeds going to local non-profit charities. Parents will be required to sign a liability waiver.

Both events will take place at the RWWR fire barn, on Federal Avenue in McCook. Go through the underpass and bear right.
