Our 2022 Open House will be held on Saturday October 1st, with a tentative time of 10 AM until 3 PM. Subscribe to our newsletter at bottom of page and we will send out a Save The Date!
Noroton Heights Fire Department's Open House is an annual tradition. We invite volunteers from other departments and emergency services from around Darien, CT. The Open House is a weekend morning/afternoon with guests free to come-and-go. Our fire trucks are pulled out of their bays and we open the compartments so children can have a look at the tools we use every day.
The Open House is more than just seeing our fire house and equipment. It's a chance to see how the broader Darien, CT town reacts to fire alarms and calls for emergency help. Connecticut State Police stop by with demonstrations how seat belts work in a car crash. Darien Police (and sometimes the K-9 dog!) pay a visit and show off their vehicles. Noroton Heights members talk audiences through best practices in a fire, like evacuating below the smoke level and deciding on a common meeting point for the family.
Stop by and visit us for the Open House. From good food, meeting your neighbors, a beautiful day out in town with family, and meeting your local fire deparment, it's great fun and an interesting look at one of your town's fire departments.
The Open House event is fun for the whole family; a community gathering with live demonstrations, a chance to meet the volunteers staffing our department, explore our trucks and equipment, learn about fire safety, see how fire fighters handle dangerous situations, and take a ride on a fire truck.
Amusement, fire education, live demonstrations, and meet your neighbors!
Plenty of food, drinks and refreshments for all ages.
Win prizes and giveaways after demonstrations.
Learn about fire safety from your local volunteer fire fighters.
The Noroton Heights Fire Department's annual Christmas Tree Sale is a town-wide tradition! The event is our largest fundraiser and provides critical funding to keep the Department running. Support your local firefighters, spend locally, and get a best-in-class tree at a fair price.
Celebrate the holidays by buying your Christmas Tree from the Noroton Heights Fire Department! The tree sale usually begins just after Thanksgiving and runs until we are sold out.

From small trees perfect for an apartment to towering trees for the largest of homes or businesses, our friendly members will help you pick our the perfect tree, cut the base so it stands straight, provide tree food and watering instructions, and even tie it onto your vehicle. We also have small and large tree stands for sale. Everything you need for the holiday spirit, at fair prices, and going toward a great cause.
