Explorer's Assist Local Organizations at the 2nd Annual Light Up Lindy Food Campaign (Lindy Cares)

On January 15th Suffolk County Legislator Kevin McCaffrey, Babylon Town Clerk Gerry Compitello, Town Councilman Terry McSweeney and Lori-Ann Novello on behalf of the Lindenhurst Community Cares Coalition joined the 1st Pct Explorer's meeting to recognize the youth members of this special organization. Under distinguished leadership of Officer Margiotta, the members achieved the President's silver award for community service hours. Each participant received certificates of recognition issued by the Town of Babylon Supervisor Rich Schaffer, Legislator McCaffrey and the Board of Directors of Lindy Cares. Their time and service contributed to the success of so many charitable events in the Town of Babylon communities throughout 2019. Congratulations to all of these fine young men and woman who are our future community leaders.
