Fire engines, food trucks, station tours, raffle prizes, a bounce house and public safety demonstrations will be among the attractions at this year’s Barrington Countryside Fire Protection District’s open house this Saturday.
The free event will be 11 AM to 2 PM at the fire district’s Lake Barrington station, 22222 North Pepper Road. A side-by-side demonstration scheduled for 12:30 p.m. will allow guests to see how fire sprinkler systems contain fires and limit property damage and injury.
A blood drive will run at the station from 9 AM to 3 PM. There also will be a raffle to win a junior firefighter uniform.
