While in-station birthday parties for kids have been suspended due to COVID-19 restrictions, the Sandy Spring Volunteer Fire Department (SSVFD) in MARYLAND has been bringing the birthday parties to kids in our response area. Members of the department have been conducting drive-by visits with fire trucks and Sparky the fire dog for kid’s birthdays (and on special occasions for seniors – our oldest visit was for a 101st birthday). Use the form below to make these requests.

KID’S BIRTHDAY PARTIES AT THE FIRE STATION (see below) HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED DUE TO COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS. THIS PAGE WILL BE UPDATED WHEN THOSE RESTRICTIONS ARE LIFTED AND IN-STATION PARTIES CAN RESUME.

If your child loves fire trucks, firefighters, fire hydrants…anything fire related, why not have their birthday party at the Sandy Spring Volunteer Fire Department!

The party includes a tour of the fire station, a safety talk with a firefighter, a chance to sit on a fire truck and use of the fire station meeting room for cake.

Parents interested in booking a birthday party for their child age 4 to 6 years at the Sandy Spring Volunteer Fire Department should fill out the form below indicating the preferred date. Note: Birthday parties are conducted on weekends only from 1 to 3 pm.
