In breaking news, Tulsa’s mental health community faces uncertainty after several major clinics, including Grand Mental Health and CREOKS Health Services, received unexpected state contract termination notices. Though operations continue for now, leaders are scrambling to clarify the situation with state officials. These clinics provide essential services, such as in-school counseling and addiction recovery, to thousands of Tulsans. Local representatives are pressing for stability as the community awaits further updates.
On a lighter note, the Tulsa Housing Authority has reopened the Pioneer Plaza high-rise after a 19-month renovation. Located on Elgin Avenue, the project brings updated, affordable housing options to downtown, delivering a significant boost to the urban community.
Weather-wise, it’s starting to feel like spring! Expect a warm day with a high of 77 degrees, perfect for outdoor events. The weekend looks even nicer, with highs reaching into the 80s by Sunday. If you're planning to head outside, today’s Guns to Garden Tools Ceremony at 5101 East Pine Street might be worth a visit. The event, organized by Tulsa Metropolitan Ministry, turns surrendered firearms into garden tools to honor victims of gun violence and promote healing through renewal.
In business news, downtown is buzzing with the soft opening of a new farm-to-table eatery, “The Urban Harvest,” near Guthrie Green. Meanwhile, a beloved mom-and-pop bakery on 15th Street, Lisa’s Pies, announced its closure after 30 years of serving Tulsa. Fans have until April 30 to grab their final slice of nostalgia.
On the cultural front, the Greenwood Cultural Center hosted a packed event last night featuring former Texas Congressman Beto O’Rourke and other speakers addressing the state of politics in the South. Meanwhile, a Sapulpa woman is in the running for a $1 million prize in a national chip flavor contest with her tasty bacon grilled cheese creation. Fingers crossed for her!
In sports, the Booker T. Washington Hornets triumphed in their baseball game last night, edging out Union High in a close 5-4 victory. Meanwhile, the Tulsa Drillers kick off their homestand tonight at ONEOK Field against the Arkansas Travelers. With perfect baseball weather, it’s a great night to cheer on the home team.
Crime updates include a tragic motorcycle accident involving a school bus yesterday afternoon. The motorcyclist is in critical condition, and authorities urge caution for all drivers, particularly near schools. Separately, two Tulsans were recently sentenced for operating an illegal dark web pharmacy distributing drugs from China, highlighting the continued effort to combat cybercrime in our city.
Lastly, a feel-good story to round out your morning: Tulsa firefighters have launched an initiative to install free smoke detectors in local homes to reduce fire fatalities. It’s a simple yet effective way to keep our community safe.
This has been Tulsa Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates. Stay safe and enjoy this beautiful Saturday!
