TULSA, Okla. — The Tulsa Fire Department put on its 9th annual Tips and Treats event, bringing safety and fun together for the Halloween season.
“As you can see, people are just pouring and pouring in. I’m overwhelmed with so much joy of how many people come and support this cause,” said Jeremy Jackson, the organizer of Tips and Treats and a firefighter EMT with TFD. “Just all of our vendors and everybody coming together to see what we do and us having some time to spend one on one with the community, teach them about fire safety, teach them the importance of checking smoke detectors and also having a safe plan, an exit plan, leaving the house in case there’s a fire.”
Tips and Treats aims to be a safe place where kids can have fun and trick or treat while also learning about fire safety.
