Fire Safety Week and Open House

The Lombard Fire Department recognizes National Fire Safety Week and encourages everyone to make an escape plan with this year's theme, “Fire won’t wait. Plan your escape,” which centers around developing a home escape route to educate your family about simple and important actions that can protect families from fires.

Fire Department Open House
To help encourage fire safety, the Fire Department hosted a fun community open house last night. Attendees experienced fire safety games and learned about the importance of an escape plan.
