The Arlington Heights Fire Department Open House will be from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 15, at Fire Station One, 300 E. Sigwalt St., in the downtown village area. Free parking is available at the Village Municipal Garage.

The Fire Department Open House will include the Fire Safety Trailer, equipment and informational displays, demonstrations, tours of the fire station, and Sparky the Fire Dog.

This is your chance to get a close-up view of the work firefighters do, the equipment they use, and the place they stay while on duty protecting the residents of Arlington Heights.
