Kid's Safety and Health Fair- May 3
The Tacoma Fire Department will be hosting its annual kids’ safety and health fair on Saturday, May 3. Learn how to show – not just tell – your child safety and health tips. Preventable injury is the leading cause of hospitalizations and death for children. Children can spray a real fire hose and learn what to do in a fire by crawling through the smoke tunnel.
Look for the free car seat inspections, custom-fit helmets for $7 and $10, and U.S. Coast Guard approved life jackets for $12. Also, parents can bring their child’s immunization records if they would like them to receive a variety of free shots to stay current for school requirements.

We attended this two years ago and it was an excellent event. The gym is filled with booths and the people there are wonderful with children and happy to answer all their questions. Also, the helmets and life vests are a BARGAIN – great quality and, of course, you get them personally fitted while you’re there.
