The Bay Shore Brightwaters Rescue Ambulance Youth Squad is hosting a Holiday Food Drive to help support local families in need this Thanksgiving. We will be collecting nonperishable food donations, including canned vegetables, gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce, potatoes, snacks, and other holiday essentials. Visit us this Thursday at King Kullen in Bay Shore from 5-9pm.

As we approach the season of giving, we invite our community to join our young volunteers in making a difference. Every donation, big or small, helps bring a little extra comfort to a neighbor’s Thanksgiving table.

A busy morning in Bay Shore!

Today, BSBRA volunteers were out in full force providing EMS coverage for both the annual Great South Bay Run and the Bay Shore High School football game — all while maintaining emergency coverage for the communities of Bay Shore and Brightwaters.

Thanks to an incredible turnout from our membership, we staffed six volunteer BLS ambulances, two ALS fly cars, and our Special Operations unit to support today’s events and ensure our community was covered.

Days like today showcase what volunteer EMS is all about: teamwork, dedication, preparedness, and a commitment to serving our neighbors. We are incredibly proud of every member who gave their time today. Thank You!
