Seeing the Golden Driller! The Golden Driller is a 75-foot-tall (23 m), 43,500-pound (19,700 kg) statue of an oil worker, in Tulsa, Oklahoma at the fairgrounds. It is the fifth-tallest statue in the United States.

If you want to venture out you are just 20 minutes away from the Oklahoma Aquarium. You can view local lake and river inhabitants such as the 120 year old alligator snapping turtle, pet or feed stingrays and walk through a glass tunnel under a tank that holds the largest bull shark in captivity. Don’t miss Extreme Amazon which allows kids to crawl under the water’s surface and into the tank.

Check out downtown Tulsa. It's 20 minutes away with amazing places to eat and play. While downtown, you can take the kids to Guthrie Green for the fountains or you can spend all day at The Gathering Place, it's one of the largest public parks in the United States.

Don't forget to bring your bathing suits for our outdoor pool and cabanas. The temperature in Tulsa can get up to 100 degrees in the summer and below 20 degrees in the winter. If you have forgotten something important, Woodland Hills Mall is right next door.
