Several nonprofit organizations, Oklahoma City Police Department, Oklahoma County Sherriff's Office, OG&E, and resource booths were also in attendance for the event.
The grandchildren were able to choose a new backpack which was filled with school supplies. Free face painting, family fun activities, games and "Touch-a-Truck," which gave the children an opportunity to interact with a fire truck, police cars and a helicopter.
