If it's September, you might want to check out the Greek Holiday Festival sponsored by the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church. It's a fantastic celebration of all things Greek, including dance, drink, and food. You'll feel like you've been transported right to the Greek Isles. And speaking of significant food events, Tulsa has its fantastic celebration of Greek culture and cuisine. The annual festival celebrates 50 years of bringing together the community to enjoy traditional dishes and learn more about Greek traditions. If you're feeling competitive, try the Lord of the Fries, a hilarious and messy fry-eating competition. Teams of two work together to see who can eat the most fries before time runs out, and the winning team earns the coveted title of "Lords (or Ladies) of the Fries."

Have you heard of Woolaroc? It's a hidden gem in the rugged Osage Hills of Northeastern Oklahoma. Established in 1925 as the ranch retreat of oilman Frank Phillips, Woolaroc is now a 3,700-acre wildlife preserve and world-class art museum. Will Rogers even called it "the unique place in this country."

Woolaroc isn't just about events. It's also a wildlife preserve home to many native and exotic species like bison, elk, and longhorn cattle. The museum boasts an outstanding collection of Western art and artifacts, Native American material, one of the world's finest collections of Colt firearms, and so much more.
