KAMLOOPS - An online critic that reviews firefighter calendars from around the world has put the Kamloops fire hall's calendar on its top 20 list.

The website, firecritic.com placed the Kamloops Firefighters Charitable Society calendar in the 19 slot of the top 20 list while the calendar from the Calgary firefighters took the top spot.

Toronto and Vancouver were on the list, as were firefighter calenders from Australia, Utah, Colorado, South Florida and Firefighters Without Borders.

The money raised from the sale of the 2,000 printed calendars in Kamloops was donated to Royal Inland Hospital and the B.C. Burn Fund.
