September 10th, 2007 Firefighters' feast Pizza restaurants' owners help Security department Security Fire Department firefighters, including James Krupp, center and Keith Dykstra, slapped sauce and cheese onto pizza pies Sunday as they volunteered at Borriello Brothers Pizza on Fontaine Boulevard.      (BRYAN OLLER, THE GAZETTE) Security Fire Department Chaplain Ray Briseno says he's an expert at pizza eating, not pizza making. But Sunday afternoon Briseno found himself creating garlic knots - twisted 6-inch strips of pizza dough baked and drizzled with garlic and butter. It didn't take Briseno long to hone his skills. "About three minutes, and not very well," said the humble chaplain-turned-cook. Briseno and his fellow Security firefighters lent a hand at Borriello Brothers Pizza, 5180 Fontaine Blvd., for a fundraiser benefiting the department's 15 paid staffers and 40 volunteers. The department covers about 18 square miles in the Security-Widefield areas. Borriello Brothers' three owners, all New York natives, donated Sunday's profits - an estimated $3,500 - to the firefighters to note the sixth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. "It's a good way for us to kind of help out the Fire Department," said co-owner Rob Raia. Raia, originally from Staten Island, moved to Colorado Springs in 1985. In 1999, he and two others opened the first Borriello Brothers restaurant in the Springs, and the Security restaurant is their third in the area. Sept. 11 always hits hard for all three New York natives, but especially Bill Stein, a retired Long Island police officer, Raia said. "I like to go back just to see people - and the food," Raia said. The Security firefighters' task Sunday afternoon was to help prepare New York's famous thin-crust pizza. "They're doing pretty darn good," Raia said. And to make the pizza process more exciting, some firefighters delivered orders in the firetruck, said Chief Robert "Ski" Stambaugh. Some of the money raised Sunday will likely benefit needy families in the area who apply for help around the holidays through the department's women's auxiliary, Stambaugh said. A 28-year veteran of the department, Stambaugh said he's met several New York firefighters at the Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial in Memorial Park. "It's a brotherhood," Stambaugh said. "It doesn't matter if you're a small department or a big department - you feel for each other." By JENNIFER WILSON THE GAZETTE September 10, 2007 - 11:12AM
