In an effort to acknowledge the extraordinary effort that our healthcare workers in the County are making, the emergency services community paid a visit to the Westchester County Medical Center on Tuesday evening with apparatus, signs and masks!
Almost all of the participating rigs were staffed to capacity as they staged at the County Police Headquarters on Dana Road in Valhalla. With participation by many fire, police departments and ambulance corps, the mood was upbeat and almost jubilant as everyone prepared to begin one of the largest parades Westchester County has ever seen.
So for about an hour or so, everyone on the front lines escaped the daily reality of the Coronavirus, social distancing, wearing masks, missing our friends, work colleagues, restaurants and favorite hangouts to pay tribute to the real heroes in all of this while driving under the American flag hoisted high by the Hawthorne and Elmsford Fire Departments’ aerial ladders.
