On Saturday afternoon, you will have a choice of tours included in your Sessions registration fee
Visit the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum
The Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum was created to honor those who were killed, those who survived and those changed forever by the 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. The Memorial and Museum are dedicated to educating visitors about the impact of violence, informing about events surrounding the bombing, and inspiring hope and healing through lessons learned by those affected.
The Oklahoma City Museum of Art
The Oklahoma City Museum of Art is located in the heart of Downtown Oklahoma City’s Arts Quarter. Accredited by the American Association of Museums, the Museum serves over 100,000 visitors annually from all fifty states and over forty foreign countries and hosts special exhibitions drawn from throughout the world, including Temples and Tombs: Treasures of Egyptian Art from The British Museum, coming in 2006, and Roman Art from the Louvre, coming in 2008. The Museum is home to an extensive permanent collection of European and American art, including the most comprehensive collection of Dale Chihuly glass in the world, and the Midwest’s premiere repertoire cinema, which presents the finest international, independent, and classic films. Amenities include the Museum’s Library Resource Center, Museum Cafe, Museum Store, and Museum School, which offers classes for students of all ages as well as fall, winter, and summer camps for youths.
The National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum
The National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum is dedicated to the preservation of western heritage through an events schedule that entertains and educates both children and adults. From glitzy galas like the Western Heritage Awards and Prix de West Invitational Art Exhibition and Sale, to the Chuck Wagon Gathering and National Children's Cowboy Festival, the museum attracts both a local and national audience.
On Saturday evening there is Bricktown
Travel along the canal and eat at one of the many fine restaurants. The reconstruction of Oklahoma City's first wholesale commercial district began in the early 1980's, and included the forming of a limited partnership for occupants who leased the buildings. From this point to the continuing development projects in that area bounded by Main Street, Reno, Walnut and the Santa Fe Railroad tracks, Bricktown has become a tourist attraction that provides residents and visitors to Oklahoma City with an outstanding place to dine, to enjoy exciting AAA baseball at the Southwestern Bell Bricktown Ballpark, to stroll along the Bricktown canal where you can view the Bricktown Mosaic Murals, or to just enjoy people-watching!
Attend Saturday evening’s Oklahoma Redhawks baseball game
The RedHawks’ home, AT&T Bricktown Ballpark, brings it all back. The tradition. The history. The excitement.
Every seat is intimately close to the action—bring your glove! The concourses are open to the field, providing a great view even before you get to your seat. The low, 8-foot outfield walls will allow plenty of spectacular catches. And the short, 325-foot left field line is sure to see its share of home runs. The Brick has many modern amenities, from its state-of-the-art video board to television monitors throughout the park, but the concept is strictly old-fashioned. After all, it is all designed with only one thing in mind: the fan. Just like the old days.
And there is always the traditional pre-Sessions (four person scramble) Golf Outing.
