On Wednesday, October 8th, Oakmont held Operation EDITH at The Halderman Residence on Woodleigh Road in Havertown. Operation EDITH(Exit Drills In The Home) is a creative way for Oakmont to teach the community about fire prevention, fire safety, and escape planning. This event allows families to see firsthand how firefighters respond to a call. Kids are able to see the firefighters up-close and in action while learning important fire tips and the dos and don’ts of fire safety.
