Fire Engine Visits

The McHenry Township Fire Protection District offers public event fire engine visits to promote public fire and life safety education.  We cannot honor requests that are for marketing purposes.  If you are interested in having our fire engine and personnel visit your event, click on the link below, complete this form and submit it at least 10 days prior to your event.

Scheduling Information

We are happy to schedule an engine visit for a block party to promote fire and life safety education. Block parties will require a permit from the City of McHenry which is forwarded to the fire department so we are aware of road closures in case of an emergency in the area. Outside the City of McHenry, contact your village for information about block party permits.  

We will do our best to accommodate your event request; however, emergency calls are the District’s first priority.  Please understand if we are unable to attend your event or need to leave quickly. To ensure everyone’s safety at the event if our personnel need to respond to an emergency call, please have a safe zone for children and guests established ahead of time.  If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact our Public Education department.
