While in-station birthday parties for kids have continue to be suspended in 2023, 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 drive-by birthday requests. Please do not call the station.
