Volunteers Needed!
I am working on getting a Nature
Center Volunteer List Calendar started. Now what I mean is a
list of dates and volunteers that they will work at the nature
center. Duties of volunteers will vary widely and will be tailored
to each volunteer's skills and interest. If you would like to
spend a Sunday afternoon or Satuday working at the nature center,
then drop me a line. I am working on this calendar now and will
be sending out this request for volunteers each month. I am
working on April's calendar at the moment. I have all the Sunday's
covered for the month of March.
Thank you for your time and efforts

Stargazing
April 15 and 16th, 2005 is our
Stargazing event with the Oklahoma City Astronomy Club. Hosted
by Tenkiller State Park, this event will take place from 9 pm-l1pm
behind cabins 27 and 28. The event is free to the public and
telescopes will be
available.
Plenty of one, two and three bedroom cabins are available for
this special weekend.
The skies over Lake Tenkiller offer a view of more stars than
you can imagine. The
quiet stillness of the night, the beauty of the Milky Way, constellations,
the Big Dipper and more discoveries through a telescope by club
members will make this a memorable event for you and your family.
For cabin reservation information, please call:
Tenkiller State Park 918-489-5641/5643 or
email us at tenkillercabins@oklahomaparks.com

A Dream Come True......
Tenkiller State Park now has
a 3/4 mile, paved, 8' wide, totally accessible, multi use trail
- Beginning at the cabin/park office, the trail winds through
wooded areas, cabins, bird blind and along several bluff areas
overlooking Tenkiller Lake - the views are spectacular and the
trail once again opens up the Lake's most scenic vistas at Crappie
Point, an area which has been closed for many years.
|
| Come see why Tenkiller
State Park is Oklahoma's "Heaven In The Hills". The two attached pictures offer just
a glimpse of the spectacular scenery of Lake Tenkiller and the
Tenkiller Dam that guests can enjoy while using the trail. |
We are featuring discounted cabin
rates during January and February, so make plans to enjoy this
trail, wintering waterfowl, (including loons and eagles), and
kids 16 and under can fish for trout in the kids fishing pond.
Qualifying cabin guests fish free, campers and day use guests
may purchase a day use trout tag from the park office for $3.00. |
