Tour Oklahoma City Metro. If you can, come early to the City or stay an extra day or two. There’s much more to Oklahoma City than when you left. If you want an inside look at how we have transformed, watch the linked video: https://youtu.be/rVc4pgBGO28 Those of us who have remained in the metro area are very proud of the way our city used MAPS [collected in 1 cent sales tax] money and financed projects that enhanced quality of life and revitalized areas cross the metro. Check out the Oklahoma River and Boathouse District, the First Americans Museum, Stockyards City, Oklahoma History Museum, National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum, Oklahoma City Museum of Art, Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum, Automobile Alley and so many wonderful attractions. We also have a broad selection of delicious OKC-only food must-tries.

Guests will have time to mingle and chat while checking out Scott’s car collection.
Participants can stay in Tulsa over night, or return to OKC for Friday’s events.
