October 20, 2022On Oct. 14 and 15, members of the FDNY Vulcan Society and FDNY family were hoopin’ it up in Brownsville for the 2022 Firefighter Leon Smith Jr. Basketball Tournament. The event featured 3-on-3 games, Fire Safety Education, Mobile CPR, FDNY camaraderie and more for the community. The tourney was held in remembrance of Smith Jr., a Ladder 118 Firefighter who made the Supreme Sacrifice on September 11, 2001. All of the proceeds from the event were donated to the Leon Smith Jr. Scholarship Fund.
