Welcome to Tulsa County Parks Tulsa County has the only County operated park system in the State of Oklahoma, existing by permissive state legislation, allowing the Board of County Commissioners to manage a park system. Our vision is to secure Tulsa as an evolved community in which to live, work, play, visit and do business. Our recreation and leisure programs for people of all ages and abilities encourage wide participation so that everyone can benefit from our parks. From organized programs at community centers to our tranquil walking trails, Tulsa County Parks provide you with many opportunities to enhance your health and wellness. Our care and maintenance of publicly owned trees, green spaces and parks protects and enhances Tulsa Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural environments. Together with the community and natureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blessings, we work to preserve our entrusted lands for future generations to enjoy. We invite you to visit us soon.

Message From the Director Welcome to the Tulsa County Recreation & Activities Guide. We encourage you to utilize our many programs-with five community centers open year round, we are sure you will find something to enjoy. Connecting people to the community is what we are all about. At the heart of our organization are our volunteers. They are a vital part of the Tulsa County Parks system and we rely on their time, energy, and talents to help us create a better community. Parks, recreation services and facilities are a very important part of enhancing the quality of life in our neighborhoods. Take time out for leisure. Visit our beautiful parks, trails, tennis, and golf facilities. The benefits of parks and recreation to our community are truly endless.

Sincerely,

Commissioner Ron Peters

Pool Cost

Park Friends, Inc. was created in 1976 with a vision to expand area parks and recreation opportunities beyond the traditional support base of public funding. We are a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization, benefiting parks operated by Tulsa County and the City of Tulsa.

Pool Passes

The mission of Park Friends, Inc. is to promote interest in the development of Tulsa’s park system and encourage monetary or non-monetary gifts to the parks. We work closely with all park administrators by raising funds and making grants to fund activities that will preserve the natural beauty and historical significance of the entire Tulsa Parks System. We go beyond budgets by providing support to priority projects and activities, which ensure that each park is inspiring and beautiful for everyone. Park Friends, Inc. appropriates donations to the designated Tulsa County or a City of Tulsa park of an individual’s choice. Making a difference for the welfare and health of our entire community is a mission not only shared by us, but all of Tulsa and her sister cities. We have been instrumental in the facilitation of hundreds of thousands of dollars donated by businesses, civic groups and other organizations, as well as individuals from all walks of life for the development of Tulsa’s beautiful parks.

SPECIAL EVENTS & Reservations Planning a wedding, family reunion, or company appreciation day? Consider Tulsa County Parks as a unique setting. Let nature stage your event with all the beauty it has to offer. A special event at one of our parks is not only economical, but convenient. Whether you want an indoor or outdoor event, the parks offer a variety of venues, as well as affordable food service. Remember, as a host, you are responsible for the safety and actions of your guests, not only during your event, but until they are home safely. Tulsa County policies prohibit the possession and use of beer or alcoholic beverages at rental events in community centers unless an Alcohol Use Policy and Agreement is approved in advance and all provisions of the Agreement are followed. Intoxication is prohibited at all times, but possession and use in moderation of 3.2% beer by those of legal age is generally permitted on park grounds (but prohibited inside the centers without an approved Alcohol Use Policy and Agreement).

The facility opened in the fall of 2006, with the goal of serving North Tulsa County by providing a facility at a fair price for people to learn and improve their skills in the game of golf. The facility provides a non-intimidating environment for golfers of all ages and skill levels. Group lessons are available for the beginning golfer, as well as a number of golf camps for junior golfers ages 8-17. Introductory clinics are available for players of every age group and level. Individual lessons can be scheduled by calling the golf shop. O’Brien has a three-hole layout with 14 tee box locations incorporating par 3’s, 4’s and a par 5. The driving range has an elevated tee box of over an acre of real grass (no mats). Additionally, there is a practice bunker, chipping target green and a large putting green. The entire facility is surrounded by three lakes and a stream that all come into play. Take advantage of our “combo special” and receive a bucket of balls for the driving range and play three holes for only $5. There is an air-conditioned club house where beverages and snacks are available. O’Brien Golf Training Center believes that a proper introduction to the game of golf has the potential to positively impact the life of a child long-term. Our facility implements “no child turned away”, regardless of their financial circumstances. Qualified on-site golf instructor is available.
