Event Details
An annual celebration to honor the birth of "The Jewel of The Southwest" and Oklahoma's only historic cobblestone resort community. The community was founded on July 4th, 1908, by J. Elmer Thomas. He later became one of the first senators, for the then "new" state of Oklahoma. Thomas envisioned a Victorian Resort nestled along the medicinal waters of the Medicine Creek. The day's events are full of fun filled activities for the whole family with games, live music, duck race, food and shopping.
