This resolution honors Andrew Cucci for being named Probationary Firefighter of the Year by Storm King Fire Engine Company No. 2.

Why it matters

  1. Highlights the significant contributions of young volunteers. By specifically recognizing a probationary firefighter under 18, the resolution underscores the valuable role that youth play in public safety and community service, encouraging others to get involved early.

  2. Reinforces the importance of balancing responsibilities. The award acknowledges Andrew Cucci's ability to excel in fire service while also meeting job or school commitments, spotlighting the dedication required of young volunteers who juggle multiple demands.
