Mark your calendars for Saturday, September 16 for the Mount Prospect Fire Department’s annual Open House. The family event takes place at Randhurst Village from 10 am to 2 pm.

In addition to free food and snacks, the Open House will allow everyone the opportunity to get an up-close look at emergency response vehicles, try a firefighter pole, participate in fire safety and preparedness programs, be a part of a kids combat challenge, and take fire extinguisher training.
