Saint Paul and Minneapolis

Most police and fire stations welcome arranged visits from children. The officers and firefighters usually address safety issues and give the children a tour of the facilities and their vehicles. Occasionally children are allowed to dress up in a fire suit, etc. If you want to arrange a tour for a small group, call your nearest station to see if they host an open house. Fire stations, for example, host open houses in October, which is Fire Safety month. Officers and fire fighters will also arrange to stop by your neighborhood block party or National Night Out party (provided they are not too busy). Keep this a surprise for the kids in case they can’t show. In St. Paul for a police tour call 651.292.3639. In Minneapolis for a police tour call your specific precinct: Precinct 2: 612.673.5702 Precinct 3: 612.673.5703 Precinct 4: 612.674.5704 and Precinct 5: 612.674.5705. To arrange a Fire stations tour in St. Paul, contact Paula Peterson by email at Paula.Peterson@ci.stpaul.mn.us or by telephone at 651-228-6203 during normal working hours.
