2011 Open House Map

Bloomfield Township will hold its Open House on Sunday, October 16, from noon to 4:00 PM on the Township Civic Campus, west off Telegraph and south of Long Lake. This year, the Open House will be the biggest – and best! – ever.

Long-time favorites are still the anchors of the afternoon. The Fire Department will set fires to a mock-up of a living room and to a pan of cooking oil on a kitchen stove to show how quickly fire spreads and how they work to extinguish it. EMS personnel will display a vehicle extrication. U of M will send its medical helicopter to touch down and let visitors see how patients are transported. The Police Department will give rides in its patrol cars and stage K-9 demonstrations.

Additionally, the Road Division will give people rides in plow trucks and graders. The Grounds Division will be on hand to answer questions about proper planting and mulching practices. Building Division personnel will let builders of all ages take a crack at building a dog house. The Clerk’s Office will hold a Passport Fair to give visitors another opportunity to apply for a new passport or renew their old one.

Senior Services will lead the brand new events by running a Charity Workout for Meals on Wheels. Even the Assessor’s Office will join the festivities by helping visitors look up their properties and learn about assessing methods.
Food has always been a staple of the event, and this year will be no exception. Coffee, donuts, cider, candy, hot dogs, pizza … it’s part of the fun, and it’s free. 

Bloomfield Township Public Library completes the day by presenting “The Pied Piper of Hamelin” at 3:00 PM at the Library (1099 Lone Pine Road). This live theatre presentation is free and perfect for the whole family. For more information, click here.
