AYLUS Syosset Visits Syosset Fire Department for 9/11 Remembrance Day, 9/11/23

On September 11th, 2023, AYLUS Syosset continued its tradition of visiting and touring the Syosset Fire Department for 9/11 candlelight memorial day. Although the event was planned extremely last-minute, AYLUS members were able to collectively come together to dedicate their Monday night to remembering those lost in the September 11th attacks. Members were given a speech by First Assistant Chief of the Syosset Fire Department Robert Leonard and were able to meet four other members of the board. Syosset Fire Department is dedicated to protecting our local community, showing both compassion and urgency for those in emergencies. The Department also engages in extensive community education, mitigation of fires, first-aid medical care and countless other invaluable services. AYLUS Syosset is extremely grateful to those that dedicate their time to training in their program and of course, those who are full-time firefighters and professionals.

The attacks of September 11th, 2001 needs no introduction. The twin towers served as an immensely important building comprising of thousands of workers, companies and tourists. Close to 3,000 lives were taken in the World Trade Center and 125 were taken in the Pentagon. Countless lives continued to be taken as a result of the lasting impacts of the immeasurable amounts of smoke and debris and more were taken as a result of those who gave up their lives saving those in danger.

Many members of AYLUS Syosset decided to make a wide array of homemade baked goods to give to the Department, another ongoing tradition. Goods included brownies, cakes, cupcakes, donuts, coffee, mochi and more.

Members who participated include:
