The Firemen of Hollywood’s Sunset Strip Launch New Calendar to Raise Funds for Animals in Need

The “Firemen of Hollywood’s Sunset Strip” have introduced their first calendar, featuring 12 handsome firefighters, including honorary fireman, actor Eion Bailey, all in their traditional fireman gear and each posing with their beloved animals. The limited edition 2009 calendar goes on sale today at www.sunsetstripfiremen.com and will benefit animals in need through Tony La Russa’s Animal Rescue Foundation.

“My fellow firefighters came together to raise money for a non-profit we believe in and selected ARF because of the never ending work they do for both animals and people,” said Captain Rick Brandelli, of Fire station 8 in West Hollywood, CA.

In addition to the full color photographs, the calendar also features information about ARF which was created by the St. Louis Cardinals manager, Tony La Russa in 1991. ARF is an organization that not only aids abandoned and homeless animals, but also promotes the fact that people’s lives can be enhanced by strengthening the bonds between humans and animals.

“We were lucky to have our calendar shown with the beautiful Heidi Klum on the Tonight Show (NBC TV) during their recent Salute to the Firefighters and we think our calendar makes the perfect holiday gift.” Brandelli went on to say, “We hope to present ARF with a nice check from the Firemen of Hollywood’s Sunset Strip.”

The firefighters and pets that grace the calendar pages are: January – Fireman Fernando Romero & Pookie, February – Fireman Bradley Woldenstein & Duece, March – Fireman Tim Crass & Misty , April – Firemen Rich Conejo & Kong, May – Captain Jason Hurd & Randee & Buddy, June – Honorary Fireman actor Eion Bailey & Beeker, July – Fireman Ed Zubo & Max, August – Captain Rick Brandelli & Riley, September – Engineer Mel Solberg & Jack, October – Fireman Mike Urbano (cover) & John Henry, November – Fireman Robert Nowaczyk & Apple, December – Fireman Alan Averill & Luna.
