Wow, that's a long and impressive list!

10-15 years ago I don't think any of those things were around.

The snow tubing was pretty disappointing last year...

The snow tubing was pretty disappointing last year...
I don't know about that, because I never got a chance to go snow tubing. If anyone is interested in doing this, you need to get in line early, or you will miss out.

If you do go, let us know how you liked it.

Thanks, Kim, for keeping us informed of all the activities going on.

Spartan,

This year we have added an additional lane and additional sessions to make the crowd flow quicker. I'm sorry you were disappointed, everyone I spoke to really enjoyed it.

I was downtown last night and drove up and down the streets. I was impressed! The city is looking so nice for the holidays and I can't help but compare it to the downtown of just 15 years ago and be blown away. Thanks Kim for your part in the resurgence of downtown Oklahoma City.
