Lake Bluff Public Safety Open House Features Dogs

There will be lots to see and do at the public safety open house, but we're most interested in meeting the state's attorney's therapy dogs.

LAKE BLUFF, IL — The Public Safety Open House this year, hosted at Lake Bluff's Public Safety Building, will have tons to feature.

At the fire station, open house goers will get a chance to tour the firehouse, see fire extinguisher demonstrations, see a live fire demonstration and more. And yes, kids will get to slide down a fire pole.

There will also be fire, police and public works vehicle displays, not to mention a corn roast.
