The Putnam Valley Volunteer Ambulance Corps was proudly recognized as the 2008 EMS Agency of the Year by the Putnam County EMS Council. This award was presented to Sheryl Luongo, Captain of the PVVAC by Robert Cuomo, Director, Emergency Medical Services Putnam County Bureau of Emergency Services and our own Michael Moculski, Putnam County EMS Council President and 2nd Lieutenant of the PVVAC. The award ceremony took place at the Centennial Golf Club in Carmel on May 3, 2009. This prestigious award is in recognition of the tireless dedication of the volunteer members of the PVVAC in the nearly perfect record for covering the calls in Putnam Valley and also helping out a number of other agencies by covering many mutual aid calls to nearby towns. We are also very fortunate to have an extremely dedicated 1st Lieutenant, Don Graesser, who last year, personally trained over 500 individuals; many from our community at large. Don recently reached a milestone by surpassing a record of covering over 5,000 calls for the PVVAC and has many thousands more in other communities. Another highlight for the PVVAC is the large contingent of dedicated members of our youth corps.
