The 9/11 Bell of remembrance
⠀
In 2025 the What Exit Fools chapter took over the responsibility of preserving the Bells of remembrance from the First State Fools chapter based in Delaware.
⠀
This memorial was the idea of Brother David Schlatter a priest who wanted to honor his late friend and mentor Fr Mychal Judge. The bell was created by the McShane Bell Foundry in Wilmington Del and honors the 343 FDNY members. 23 NYPD, and 37 PAPD officers killed on 9/11/01
⠀
The What Exit Fools chapter has spent countless hours maintaining and updating this memorial and has recently been able to display it out several events including the NJ firefighter’s weekend in Wildwood NJ.
⠀
We look forward to preserving this beautiful memorial and continuing to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice on that fateful day in 2001

On Friday we hosted Capt Bryan Emenecker at the convention center as he presented Mastering the basics. The turnout was beyond expectations for this energetic and informative program.
