With social gatherings being discouraged due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Lake Bluff Fire Department has come together to offer a special gift to people who have a birthday during this time.

Known as the “Ride-By,” the Lake Bluff Fire Department will ride by the home of the person celebrating a birthday with lights and sirens on. While they won’t be interacting with the public one-on-one, they will be driving by and waving at the people celebrating birthdays.
