The Franklin Park Fire Department gone through several changes and growing pains, especially with regards to public education and relations.  We started out as we begin each year with planning nd meetings to discuss various projects and set up.  Some of the other projects and community services the Fire Department participates in are:

• CPR and First Aid Classes

• Station Tours for Families, Girl & Boy Scout Troops & Day Camps

• Franklin Park Baseball Parade

• Surrounding Community & 9-11 Silent Parades

• Easter Bunny Celebration at North Park

• Delivering Santa-Christmas in Hammill Square

• Bring Your Daughter to Work Day

• Fill the Boot Day for Burn Camp & Muscular Dystrophy

• Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society

Through the support of Chief Traiforos and our members, we are excited to move forward and improve or implement over 20 new programs within the village.  From the schools to the elderly, in house and with the park district, and including many new faces interested in public education and relations, we hope to provide the best level possible of fire and risk prevention education to the citizens and employees of Franklin Park.
