Lynbrook Fire department revs up for Chamber car show

Posted

Lynbrook Fire Department members took time from volunteering to rescue people in trouble to be part of the Lynbrook Chamber of Commerce’s Car Show on Atlantic Avenue last month.    

An array of vehicles from classic cars to trucks to the different types of fire vehicles dotted the street.

The fire department’s Wounded Warrior Committee sold JetBlue raffle tickets for its annual Wounded Warrior fundraiser, End of Summer Bash, at Greis Park on Sept. 21 from 3 to 9 p.m. A car show will precede the bash and will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., also in the park at 55 Wilbur St., in the village. Seven wounded soldiers from Fort Belvoir in Virginia will attend.

With a new ambulance to show off, the department’s emergency medical company aimed to recruit new members. It was reported that few Lynbrook residents were interested.
