October 21, 2025

The Leader features NYIT de Seversky Mansion’s 11th Annual Cast Iron Chef Cooking Competition. The event, held in honor of those in law enforcement who protect New York Tech’s Long Island and New York City campuses, pitted officers from Nassau County, Suffolk County, New York City, Old Westbury, and Brookville against each other to create the best dish using specific ingredients.

In the end, the Old Westbury Police Department received first place, but NYIT de Seversky Mansion made a $2,000 donation toward a charity of each department’s choice.
