Fire Department Events

Dan Patch Days

June 23 - 26, 2011

The Savage Fire Department has been very active in past Dan Patch Days celebrations and 2011 was no different.

Saturday's event included neighborhood water fights. Several members of the community  put together a four-person team and competed against each other.

We also had a Safe Escape trailer for the kids to enjoy, thanks to the Prior Lake Fire Department for the use of the trailer.

On Sunday morning, June 26, we hosted an open house and our annual pancake breakfast. This year's breakfast was held at our new Dakota Avenue fire station. We served over 1100 people in 4 hours.

Open House

Our 2011 open house was Tuesday October 4th  at our O'Connell Road Fire Station.

Thia years event was a lot of fun, we had  fantastic weather and a great turnout, over 450 people attended.

There was a lot of interest in the fire extinguisher and residential sprinkler demonstrations and the fire trucks rides, as always, were a big hit!
