Time and Location:    We will meet at 9:30am at the State Capitol, 2300 N Lincoln Blvd. Oklahoma City in the visitors parking lot south of the Capitol. I will need to get a quick head count for lunch at Steer Inn Restaurant in Cushing.   We will then walk as a group to the SW visitor entrance.    (See attached email and map for information concerning the tour. LEAVE ALL YOUR SHARP POINTY THINGS IN YOUR VEHICLE AS YOU WILL BE GOING THROUGH A METAL DETECTOR) Feel free to explore until we all meet up at 12:45pm.

We will meet up in the visitor parking lot south of the Capitol at 12:45 pm and plan to leave at 1:00 to Pony Drive to Cushing.  It is approximately 1 hour so we will not be stopping for a potty break.

Lunch: Arrival time should be about 1:00 pm at the Steer Inn Restaurant, 1340 E Main Street, Cushing OK 74023 (918) 225-4703.

  1. Keep your headlights on for safety and to let traffic know where our last car is.

  4. If you have OMC magnets, please display on your car during the pony drive.
  5. The lead vehicle, a vehicle in the middle of the cars and the tail car will all be in contact with one another, this allows the car closest to the event to notify the lead vehicle. (Vehicle with a flat, a group of vehicles have been separated at traffic lights etc…)
