Residents of Minnetonka, if you've ever wanted a peek behind the curtain at your local fire station, the upcoming Fire Department and City Open House is an event you won't want to miss. Set for Oct. 7 from 5-7:30 p.m., this annual gathering offers a chance for community members to engage with the firefighters and city staff, learn about their operations, and perhaps even influence the young to consider a future in public service.
Hosted at the Minnetonka City Campus located at 14600 Minnetonka Blvd., the Open House promises a slew of activities, varying from the exhilarating like riding on a fire truck for those who meet the 40-inch height requirement and spraying water from a fire hose, to more down-to-earth pleasures, such as savoring a hot dog, enjoying a cup of cocoa, or taking home a native plant seed packet.
The event details, provided on the official City of Minnetonka website, note that activities are subject to change and will be finalized closer to the event date.
