Chula Vista first responders honored on 9/11

The Chula Vista business community delivered breakfast and lunch to first responders on 9/11 in an effort to say ’thank you.’ “It’s the least that we can do,“ said Lucy Romero of Torrey Pines Bank. “They support our community, it’s the least we can do to give back to them.“ For years, Seven Mile Casino has been delivering food to its nearby fire station on 9/11 to express its gratitude. This year, it partnered with the Chula Vista Chamber of Commerce to expand the tradition to all 10 fire stations in Chula Vista as well as the police department. They put the word out Thursday, by Friday they said they were overwhelmed with businesses wanting to pitch in and help. “We all remember where we were that morning,“ said Romero. “It’s important to never forget, to always remember.“ MORE:
