Sharklahoma is a collaboration between the Oklahoma Aquarium and the Jenks Chamber of Commerce to celebrate our community and its local businesses, while also raising awareness about the ecological and economic importance of sharks.

The result was “Sharklahoma”—a month-long celebration of all-things shark, with events at the Oklahoma Aquarium and several other supportive local businesses throughout Jenks. The Oklahoma Aquarium is home to the only bull shark exhibit in the Western Hemisphere. With 10 bull sharks on exhibit, it is also the world’s largest collection of bull sharks. This exhibit, amongst others, has earned the Oklahoma Aquarium media attention from around the globe. Since opening in 2003, the Oklahoma Aquarium has been a great source of pride and economic growth for the city of Jenks. The bull sharks have also participated in important research projects to help humans and other sharks in captivity.

Much like the music itself, the film tells unforgettable stories of hardships and joys shared by everyday people. Tickets to this event are free. Limit four tickets per person. This event is for country music lovers of all ages. However, minors must be accompanied by an adult.

Creek County Free Fair

September 19-22, 2019

We solicit your cooperation in helping to make the 2019 County Fair the BEST FAIR ever held in Creek County. When preparing exhibits, read carefully the rules governing each department in which you expect to enter. This will avoid misunderstandings at the last moment. A properly conducted fair should and does result in quality production. Not one factor does more to stimulate efforts on the improvement in farm and ranch conditions than the agricultural fair. It is there that the farmer has an opportunity to see and observe the progress being made in the improvements of farm crops and animals and to compare his work with the efforts of others. His success in competing with his neighbors stimulates him to greater efforts and his failures teach him wherein his work is at fault. It is the purpose of the fair association to make these fairs educational institutions and to encourage cooperation among farmers and men. The management of the Creek County Free Fair is in the hands of the Creek County Fair Board, which is composed of three members elected from each Creek County Commissioners District annually for three-year terms. The active management of the fair is in the hands of the executive board, consisting of president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer and five members of the board. This is your fair and is intended to be of educational value to all who attend. No admission charges will be made where exhibits are present. Bring the best you have in the way of livestock, farm crops, vegetables, fruit, canned goods, textiles, poultry, etc. Plan your exhibits early. Read this catalogue. Select exhibits that have merit in their classes. Here is where you compete with your neighbor in your ability to select the best as well as in the production of the article itself. If you win any contest, your neighbor who exhibits in the same class, can see where he has failed or profited thereby. Come and bring your family. Do not forget the boys and girls, for they are the farmers and farmers' wives of the future. Help to make this fair a great success!

An Evening with Branford Marsalis

October 6, 2019 | 7:30 p.m.

Presented By: Tulsa PAC Trust Saxophonist Branford Marsalis is one of the most influential and revered figures in contemporary music. The NEA Jazz Master, Grammy Award winner and Tony Award nominee is equally at home performing concertos with symphony orchestras and sitting in with members of the Grateful Dead, but the core of his musical universe remains the Branford Marsalis Quartet. After more than three decades of existence with minimal personnel changes, this celebrated ensemble is revered for its uncompromising interpretation of a kaleidoscopic range of both original compositions and jazz and popular classics. After the Grammy-nominated Upward Spiral, on which guest vocalist Kurt Elling was seamlessly integrated into the group, the Quartet has followed up with The Secret Between the Shadow and the Soul, its most emotionally wide-ranging and melody driven collection to date. John Zeugner captured the impact of the Quartet in live performance in a recent concert review, calling it “casually confident, professional, cerebral, and supercharged with energy. The Branford Marsalis Quartet…was all of those adjectives and more.”
