Open House Map

The Fire Department will stage crowd-pleasing demonstrations that are exciting to see and teach valuable lessons as well. Watch firefighters extinguish live fires. Tour the newly renovated Central Fire Station. Get an up-close look at a survival flight helicopter. Meet Sparky, the firefighter dog. Enjoy the cider, hot dogs and cookies that will be served.

The Police Department is planning something for everyone. Kids can ride in a patrol car while teens and adults (those with drivers’ licenses) can try driving a golf cart while wearing "drunk goggles." You may tour the station, look at confiscated property and see how fingerprints are taken. You can also tour the Animal Shelter and learn more about pet adoptions. There will be a K-9 demonstration and a scavenger hunt for kids. There will be food here too – cider, donuts, and even chili.

Public Services will give kids tattoos (just the temporary kind!) and paint their faces. Kids can have their picture taken while they sit in a large road grader. Parents can learn more about West Nile disease, Oak Wilt, and other important topics. You can see what really goes through those sewer lines and watch the impact a leaky faucet has on your water meter.

See how the new Clearzoning ordinance software works at the Planning Division display, and watch the Building Division’s video that shows how building codes protect the public’s safety. The Ordinance Division will dispense helpful information about play structures, sheds, hot tubs and fire pits.

Bloomfield Community Television will invite you into the state-of-the-art video production truck it uses to shoot programs of concerts, parades and other events in the community. You’ll be able to watch yourself on TV and learn how you can become involved in local television programming.

Last but not least, this is your chance to tour the beautiful new Senior Center. You may be especially interested in seeing where the Friendship Club members find recreation and loving care during the day while their family members have much needed respite.
