2007 Clark Burn Center Holiday Party

   Since 1995 the Clark Burn Center, young 
burn survivors, and area Fire Departments have 
met to celebrate the season with an annual 
party. Originally held at the Clark Burn 
Center, the festivities have since moved to 
local firehouses for the past six years. 
Donations recieved by the Clark Burn Center
from area Fire Departments and local businesses 
during this time are used to help fund the Burn 
Camp located in Painted Post, NY. The donated 
funds also help cover the cost of travel for 
loved ones visiting family members at 
the Burn Center. 
 
   This year the Moyers Corners Fire 
Department proudly opened their doors 
to seventeen children and the staff of the
Clark Burn Center. They even got to spend the 
night at MCFD Station 1 and sleep right in 
the firefighter's bunking quarters. On Friday
night the children went to the movies and 
Lights on the Lake via Liverpool Fire 
Deparment's bus. Early Saturday morning the 
children helped to make breakfast. Later that day the children were met by family, friends, 
and firefighters from Onondaga and Oswego County for food, fun, and games. A surprise 
visit by Santa highlighted the festivities. The following departments/organizations/
businesses attended and/or contributed to this year's event:
