2025 FIRE PREVENTION WEEK

OCTOBER 5 - OCTOBER 11, 2025

"CHARGE INTO FIRE SAFETY"

TRICK OR TREAT

OCTOBER 31, 2025, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Dear Mayor, Mrs. Anderson, and Village Council,

Glen and I would like to take the time to recognize and thank the officers of BHPD and Valley Fire Dept. for their special attention again this year. Each year we host a group of clients from the People First Adult Day Program. This year we hosted approximately 30 individuals with special needs for a picnic and an opportunity to meet the animals on our small hobby farm. 

Each year the officers of BHPD and Valley Fire also attend if possible for a few moments to greet and welcome clients, talk about their careers, and also speak to them about fire safety and stranger danger. Many of the officers are here year after year and are recognized by the clients. This year Chief McArdle, Officer Hildreth, and Officer Hetrick from BHPD as well as Office Skolnik from Valley Fire went above and beyond to make the visit special. 

Thank you for allowing them to be a part of this special day for these members of our community.
