PHOTOS: Lanoka Harbor Fire Fighters Clean Cars To Raise Funds For 9/11 Memorial

All proceeds benefit the 9/11 memorial, which is expected to be built by Sept. 11, 2011

The Lanoka Harbor Fire Company held a car wash to raise funds for their 9/11 memorial, which will include a piece of steel from the World Trade Center.

Motorists stopped by the firehouse located on Route 9 and drove their cars under a 75 foot aerial ladder spraying water down on them.

Chief Amrozewicz was on hand washing and drying vehicles. Amrozewicz is thankful to all motorists that stopped to get their cars washed, he said.

The fire department received the steel from the NY/NJ Port Authority earlier this year.

The 9/11 memorial will incorporate the WTC steel and the Lanoka Harbor fire company is committed to building it in time for the tenth anniversary of the terrorist attacks.
