This place is an Okie oasis! It's a virtual paradise with its incredibly deep blue waters, welcoming atmosphere, and amazing scenery. It's the ULTIMATE Sooner State swimming hole!

Summer will soon be upon us, along with the insane Summer heat. As the days and weeks go by it will become hotter and hotter, so how exactly are you going to cool off? Easy, check out the absolute coolest place to cool off in Oklahoma!

Oklahoma has more than its fair share of scary ghost stories, tall tales, and urban legends, but one mythical creature has been terrifying people for well over 200 years, the dreaded Oklahoma Octopus said to be lurking in the deep of Oklahoma lakes.

Memorial Day weekend is one of, if not the busiest weekends at the lake. Everyone wants to get out of the house and spend some quality time outdoors and hopefully grilling out. It's the perfect place to kick back, relax and enjoy the holiday weekend. Both Lake Lawtonka and Ellsworth will be very popular places to spend Memorial Day weekend this year. If you're planning on a trip to one of Lawton's lakes the City of Lawton has some saftey reminders for you and some general rules you'll need to follow while at the lake. Hard to believe Memorial Day weekend is almost here and unlike last year we'll actually get to go out and enjoy it!

The City of Lawton just announced that they plan on re-opening all the splash pads and wading pools over the next couple of weeks.

The wading pools will reopen on Tuesday, May 25th (05-25-21) same for the Lawton Public pool.

Normally we go from cold to hot with no gradual change, but this year it's been nice to have those 70's and 80's before it gets really hot.

Sadly due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent increase in infections within the state the Comanche Nation Water Park and Nations of Fun will remain closed through the 2020 Summer season.

This is one cool dog, literally! We've been waiting for Summer and the heat to get here after all the rains. It finally shown up, with a vengeance. With temperatures in the 100's anyway you can cool off is welcomed. This pug has the right ideal, it found a bucket of water to lay in and from the snoring sounds I think it's found the perfect spot for a little nap. We could all learn something from t

Summer's here, the temperature's going straight up and area pools could be filling up with more than just swimmers.

The Paralympics celebrates the human spirit, but there seems to be some serious spirit lacking in a controversial decision not to let a paralyzed woman participate.

Ahh, summer. 'Tis the season of watermelon art, diving fails and-- you guessed it-- belly flops. When we were kids, this pool move was awesome. But nowadays... who are we kidding? It's still (painfully) awesome!
