Ambulance Corps turns 50

The Little Neck-Douglaston Volunteer Ambulance Corps turned 50 recently, and the members had a brunch at the upscale Douglaston Club, to celebrate.
The volunteers of the corps respond free-of-charge from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. on weekdays and 24-hours on weekends. They respond on weekdays as available.
Their emergency number is 718-229-0400.
In recognition of their half-century of service, City Councilmember Tony Avella (third from left) delivered a Proclamation to (from left) Executive Board member Elaine Neil; President Dino Oranges, Jr.; Vice President Louis Calderon; Recording Secretary Stephanie Cordes, Executive Board member Lawrence Sheehan and Treasurer Pat McDonnell.
