The Combat Challenge is a competition that pits firefighters against one another, racing a course designed to simulate some of the day-to-day obstacles firefighters face. This year, in an effort to bring more awareness and community involvement, the Challenge is open to the public. All a team needs is five competitors, a $200 entry fee, and courage. Teams will be assigned a practice schedule and be instructed on the different obstacles by Tyler firefighters. Ten percent of proceeds to this year\u2019s event will be donated to Tyler Firefighters Cancer Awareness Relief Effort (CARE).<\/p>\n<p>The event is scheduled for Oct. 12-13. All activities will take place in the parking lot on the south side of Broadway Square Mall, 4601 S. Broadway Ave. The event is free to the public thanks to community sponsorships. Those interested in sponsorship opportunities should contact Brent Hail at <a href=\"mailto:bhail@tylertexas.com\">bhail@tylertexas.com<\/a> or call 903-721-2706. If you are interested in registering a team for the Challenge, you can contact Jeremy Driver at <a href=\"mailto:jdriver@tylertexas.com\">jdriver@tylertexas.com<\/a> or 903-721-1503.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TYLER &#8212; This year Tyler will once more host the Brookshire\u2019s Firefighter Combat Challenge &#8212; with a new wrinkle.
