The summer of 2021 has been a very warm and extremely muggy one so far, so what better way to keep cool outdoors than by enjoying Oklahoma City’s waterparks and abundance of splashpads and spraygrounds scattered throughout the metro.
The Oklahoma City Innovation District is home to several city parks, but at the heart of the District sits a special one - the first one.
Each year, Oklahoma City hosts Bike to Work Day, which originated from the League of American Bicyclists in 1956 as part of Bike-to-Work Week. Join members of our community on Friday, May 21st from 7 AM-9 AM in Bicentennial Park for complimentary coffee and celebration.
Have you ever wondered how we’ve kept litter from lining the streets, sidewalks, and greenspaces of our community? Though we can attribute some of the cleanliness to our proud residents, it’s important to acknowledge the great effort and contributions of OKC Beautiful and the Greater Oklahoma City Parks & Trails Foundation.
We talk bowling (for some reason), Scissortail Park’s market options, as well as how things are re-opening and what we’re looking forward to doing in OKC this summer including Dodgers and Energy games, pickleball, InternOKC and more.
With Scissortail Park already bringing people together, the announcement of plans for an iconic public art sculpture in the park have only enhanced the positive energy surrounding the area.
With most running events postponed, turned virtual, or cancelled over the past year, runners are eager to get back out and on the road for in-person racing. This is one of many reasons why Chamber member Red Coyote’s inaugural half marathon on May 9th brings enthusiasm to Oklahoma City’s running community.
We’re back at outdoor HQ Kerr Park talking cool collabs between Chamber members like the upcoming release of COOP Ale Works’ Sonic-slush branded-and-inspired hard seltzers. We also discuss new cookie delivery in Bricktown, Lyric Theatre’s outdoorsy plans, networking in a pandemic, coworking options, upcoming local elections and more.
