September 12, 2024

On Wednesday September 11th, members of the Cutchogue Fire Department took part in a series of events in our community to honor and remember the tragic events of September 11, 2001.

The day started off at 8:00 am as the Mattituck And Cutchogue Fire Departments were invited to attend a special ceremony on the front lawn of Mattituck High School. School officials held a special ceremony to remember the tragic events that took place 23 years ago, and honor the lives lost on that day.

Ladder Trucks from Both CFD and MFD proudly displayed a large American flag in front of the school as part of the ceremony.

Thank you to the Staff of MHS, and the NJROTC unit for honoring the First Responders and taking steps to ensure that students and the community Never Forget.

At 6:00 pm Members of CFD joined together with firefighters all of the Southold Town Fire Departments for a remembrance ceremony

The ceremony which is organized by the Southold Town Fire Chiefs Council is held each year at the Southold Town 9-11 and Fallen Firefighters Memorial located in Cochran Park in Peconic.

Representatives from Fire Departments throughout the township and community members participated in the ceremony.

In honor of those who were lost, a memorial wreath was placed at the memorial on behalf of the Fire Chiefs Council by the a contingent of retired FDNY firefighters who live locally.

Following the ceremony, participants were encouraged to place a flag at the memorial and privately reflect upon the effects of that day.

Bag pipes during the procession and ceremony were played by Southold FD's newly formed Pipe band.

The Firefighters Memorial was officially dedicated in 2012 came to fruition following the addition of the "Morning Call" sculpture to the Cochran Park on Peconic in 2011, which is a memorial to the victims of September 11th.

Following the placement of the Osprey, the idea arose to encompass the statue with the Firefighters Memorial and create a "Heroes Plaza" memorializing Southold Town's Fallen Firefighters as well as the victims of September 11th that included FDNY firefighters, emergency workers and innocent civilians.

Each year since the memorials dedication dedication, the Town Fire Departments have gathered as a group to reflect on the events of September 11th 2001.

We encourage the community to take the time to visit the memorial.
