PLAY BALL! (Why Not?) - Sat Dec 6

Sure, they haven't broken ground on the new stadium yet. Who cares?! Be the first to play ball downtown since...well, since these guys took the field.


We'll bring the bats, softballs and hot chocolate; you bring the funny hats.

Years from now, you can take your grandkids to a Drillers game and tell them about the time you played at Driller's Field ("Ah, yes, I remember when I played here, back in the day...") No need to mention that the stadium hadn't been built yet...and you were playing softball with a bunch of TulsaNow nuts, whose average speed in the 40-yard dash was just under a minute. (We predict that the essential lack of hand-eye coordination will also be omitted from your tale.)

Join us for an hour of spontaneous fun this Saturday morning! Bring the kids, bring the dogs (heck, bring the mother-in-law) to celebrate the return of baseball to downtown Tulsa. Come to play or just to watch. (Who knows, you may see some local celebrities there.) After the "game," we'll proceed to Joe Mamma's to eat pizza and cheer the TU football team on to victory.

WHAT: TulsaNow Spontaneous Softball Invitational
WHEN: Saturday, Dec 6, 10:30-11:30 AM
WHERE: Downtown at Archer and Elgin

DOWNTOWN IS ALIVE!

Tulsa, Oklahoma, August 8th, 2008 - TulsaNow and a group of volunteers have debuted their "DowntownLive" project at the Tulsa Press Club. DowntownLive was conceived 6 months ago when a group of concerned citizens expressed their frustrations with the lack of a directory or map of Downtown available to visitors or citizens of the Tulsa area. TulsaNow organized the project and volunteers spent over 1,000 hours canvassing downtown, cataloging every public business inside of the Inner-Dispersal Loop, then compiling the information and creating both a comprehensive website and an easy-to-distribute printed guide. The printed map features an original artistic map created by Artist William Franklin that captures both the physical blocks and streets of Tulsa, as well as the spirit of Tulsa through its vibrant graphic elements. The printed maps will be distributed to businesses around Tulsa within the next few weeks. The website, www.DowntownLive.org, was created in conjunction with Evolution Studios. It features detailed information on over 200 businesses and features hours, directions, pictures, reviews, ratings and much more.


If you believe in the DowntownLive project, we need volunteers and we need sponsors to cover costs such as printing. Anyone who wants to know more, or just wants to help, should send an email to downtownlive@tulsanow.org .
