In spite of all the challenges of the last year, investments continue to be made in Tulsa that will make us more competitive for the long term. Great example: USA BMX’s Olympic training and trials arena is on schedule to be completed later this year!

For so long, Tulsa didn’t do all we could to find the remains of our neighbors who were murdered in 1921. Not any more. One location within Oaklawn Cemetery is now conclusively ruled out. Our city’s resolve to following through remains strong.
