On the 23rd anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, Seven Mile Casino in partnership with the Chula Vista Chamber of Commerce spearheaded a communitywide challenge by delivering meals to all fire stations in Chula Vista, Bonita, and Imperial Beach to pay tribute to the 441 first responders who lost their lives.
Throughout the day, appreciation meals were delivered to 12 Chula Vista fire stations, along with fire stations in Bonita and Imperial Beach, as well as the Chula Vista Police Headquarters. Meals were provided during breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with first responders having opportunities to share in the meals when their schedules allowed.
“Our first responders serve with unwavering dedication and courage every day,” said Masis Kevorkian, managing partner for Seven Mile Casino in a press release. “By reflecting on the tragic events of 9/11, we hope to inspire the community to express their deepest gratitude to those who continue to protect and serve, often at great personal risk.”
