About this event
Wilmette’s former Fire Chief, Chief Zibble, has misplaced his helmet, and we need your help to find it! Families are invited to explore the Village by visiting participating businesses and collecting stamps along the way. Once you have gathered enough stops, head to the Museum to complete your final mission and help track down the missing helmet! The more stops you make, the more prizes you can earn! Booklets can be picked up at the Wilmette History Museum, the Wilmette Public Library, or downloaded from our website starting on June 14th.
