Great Neck Alert Juniors Serving The Community

The Great Neck Alert Junior Firefighters had a busy weekend, first volunteering at the Great Neck Street Fair, and then serving as Color Guard for the “Ice Dreams” Ice Show at the Northwell Health Ice Center in Eisenhower Park. Both events took place on Sunday, June 12.

At the street fair, the Juniors shared and distributed information about fire safety and prevention. They also handed out fun giveaways for all the children that stopped by the booth. Later that afternoon, the Juniors donned their uniforms and headed over to the Northwell Health Ice Center where they had the distinct honor of serving as Color Guard for the Long Island performance of “Ice Dreams”, a live ice skating show featuring world renowned ice skaters including several Olympic medalists.

The Junior Firefighters program is for young adults between the ages of 12 and 17.
