Broad Channel, New York – Last Saturday, Assemblywoman Stacey Pheffer Amato (D-Broad Channel), attended the Broad Channel Volunteer Fire Department’s (BCVFD) Officer Installation Dance. Joined by former Assemblyman Phil Goldfeder, and community members, the event at the Broad Channel American Legion carried a significant milestone this year, as the BCVFD was also celebrating 115 years of service to the Broad Channel community.

“The Broad Channel Volunteer Fire Department has been an institution in Broad Channel for over 115 years, and the volunteers truly embody the meaning of community - the women and men volunteer their time to protect their neighborhood at any moment,” Assemblywoman Stacey Pheffer Amato said. “Congratulations to all of the officers that were installed and thank you to all of the members of the VFD that help keep Broad Channel safe!”
