Oklahoma Wildlife Expo August 27-28 to be one of the largest outdoor-related events in state history
After more than 18 months of planning and hard work, the final preparations are now being made for one of the largest outdoor-related events in state history.
The Oklahoma Wildlife Expo August 27-28 at the Lazy E Arena just north of Oklahoma City will offer more 100 hands-on activities for the young and old alike – all completely free to the public.
“The Oklahoma Wildlife Expo is a fantastic opportunity for all Oklahomans to learn more about what our state has to offer,” said Governor Brad Henry. “At the Expo you can catch a fish, paint a wildlife picture, or even try shooting a bow and arrow.”
Every visitor will be sure to find something that interests them, from shotgun shooting, to a live bat exhibit, to mountain bike riding, to dog training, to wild game cooking – the Expo will have it all.
“Coordinated by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation this event is a great example of what Oklahomans can do when they work toward a common cause,” Governor Henry said. “A wide variety of partners, including private businesses, non-profit conservation groups and other state and federal agencies, are coming together to promote and perpetuate Oklahomans’ appreciation of our state’s wildlife and natural resources.”
