Claflin Pull Dogs: Stronger, faster
Warwick, R.I.-based Claflin Company earned accolades this fall, as 25 company members pulled together – literally – to move a 140,000-pound FedEx 757 plane tug-of-war style 12 feet. The event took place at T.F. Green Airport in Warwick during the Ninth Annual MS Jet Pull for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society’s Greater New England Chapter.
About 20 teams, each comprising 25 people, participated in the pull. Each participant paid a registration fee of $50, and each team had to meet a minimum fundraising requirement of $1,500 prior to the event, which aimed to raise $50,000.
Claflin’s team, the Pull Dogs, achieved the day’s fastest time – 6.762 seconds.
