interesting facts

  • On April 22, 1889, land opened for white settlement in Oklahoma. Some people entered in "sooner" than they were supposed to. They became known as Sooners. Eventually that nickname spread to all Oklahomans.

  • A statue entitled "Hopes and Dreams," in downtown Perry was created by local sculptor Bill Bennett and placed there on a massive granite pedestal as a Cherokee Strip Centennial memorial. The statue portrays an early-day couple coming to the newly opened western frontier.
