On Wednesday, June 27, 2012, I attended First Responders Day at Wild Waves Theme Park in Federal Way, where first responders received free entry to the park and a free ride on the park’s new Soaring Eagle Zip Line. In attendance was Gina Miller, fiancée of recently fallen Washington State Trooper Tony Radulescu and other local first responders, to accept a special donation from the Wild Waves Theme Park for the Anthony Radulescu Memorial Fund.
