Clarendon Hills Firefighters were taking advantage of the warm weather to practice our skills at an acquired commercial structure thanks to Tranquility Builders Inc. We simulated a fire response and included our neighbors Hinsdale Fire Department , Westmont Fire Department and Tri State Fire Protection District to help us all improve our skills and our ability to work together on these types of incidents.
