EMSA had a big problem during COVID-19, says Adam Paluka, chief public affairs officer.

OKC Back-to-School Cool
The early days of August are dedicated to soaking up the remnants of a wide-ranging agenda (for the kids, that is) and making the plethora of arrangements needed for the start of a new school year (for the parents).

Kids’ fashion has moved beyond printed tees and extravagantly ruffled ensembles, meaning parents can explore trends and of-the-moment looks that can tap more profoundly into a child’s personality. To give fashion freedom is to allow the fullest expression of oneself … even on the playground.
