Event Coordinator Bob Maloney is inspired by his niece, Madison Armstrong, and his nephew, Ryan Maloney, both of whom have type 1 diabetes.
On Saturday, South Florida firefighters took a break from fighting fires to help extinguish another menace to their communities, type 1 diabetes. Consisting of firefighters from several local municipalities, the self-named hockey team, East Coast Bomberos, took on Florida’s West Coast Firefighters in an afternoon amateur hockey game played at the Bank Atlantic Center. According to Dade County Firefighter Bob Maloney, event coordinator, the effort raised more than $12,000 for the Diabetes Research Institute.
