MetroFamily Magazine September October 2022

Make plans to attend the GRAND OPENING Scissortail Park Foundation, along with the City of Oklahoma City, MAPS and their partners, will host a ticketed first-look gala celebrating the opening of the new lower section on Sept. 15. A weekend-long celebration, dubbed “Scissortail Park Takes Flight,” will take place Sept. 23 through 25, and weekend events will be free and open to the public. Activities will include guided tours, musical performances, health and wellness activities and a concert, among other special programming. Many of the activities will be offered in both English and Spanish. Families can also try out the new sports courts and a special expo will be hosted by professional athletes. The full schedule of events is available at scissortailpark. org and on social media @scissortailpark. “This has been a tremendous investment in downtown OKC,” said Heffernan. “How did we ever live without Scissortail Park?!”
