Dauphin Fire Firefighters had a chilly night last night.

Volunteers were on top of the Dauphin Market Place Mall during their Annual Rooftop Campout.

The event raises money and creating awareness for Muscular Dystrophy Canada.

Marie Sorlie, Campout Coordinator, says it was a memorable night.

“It was cold; it went down to -27. We have one heater up there and have never camped at that cold temperature, so the heater just didn’t keep up. We have a donated heater from one of our volunteer firefighters, he’s going to bring that in and hopefully two heaters will be enough. It was cold, so we didn’t get much sleep.”

So far they raised over $10,000 for Muscular Dystrophy Canada of their $25,000 goal.
