About Oklahoma City

   National Cowboy Museum - Here's just the place for kids of all ages. For the younger set they have created a special 'Cowboy Corral' which a building designed for kids. Here the youngster can dress up in real western gear, mount a kid-sized saddle. This is a great place for the young, and not-as-young, to learn a few things about the how cowboys worked - and lived (because they didn't work all the time).
Also on the premises is a complete western town named Prosperity Junction. Here you can really get the feeling of what you've watched so many times in those old 'B' movies.
A Western Performers Gallery explores the role fiction has played in our perception of the American West. Movies, TV, ' Wild West' shows and countless Western novels have all helped create a mythical 'West'.
Here, folks can also see the famous personages who played significant roles in the movies and on TV. Many exhibit cases display memorabilia from the collections of many of these 'heroes' (e.g., John Wayne). For more information phone 1-405-478-2250.

   Oklahoma City Nat'l Memorial - "Few events in the past quarter-century have rocked Americans' perception of themselves and their institutions and brought together the people of our nation with greater intensity than the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City.
   We didn't feel we could 'improve' upon the mission statement of the Oklahoma City Memorial Foundation:

"We come here to remember
those who were killed,
those who survived and those changed forever.
May all who leave here know the impact of violence.
May this memorial offer comfort, strength, peace, hope and serenity."

   This Outdoor Symbolic Memorial to the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building is at the site and open 24 hours, 365 days. NPS Rangers are on duty from April through September (inclusive) 9a to 10p; 9a to 5p the remainder of the year except Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Days.
   For more information phone 1-888-542-4673 (toll free).
