The Oklahoma City Parks & Recreation department is hosting its annual "Turkey Shoot" events, inviting residents to participate and showcase their shooting skills. Winners will have the chance to win a free turkey for Thanksgiving, according to the City of Oklahoma.
On November 25, six local community centers will host free throw competitions starting at 6 p.m. The events will take place at venues like the Willa D. Johnson Recreation Center on Frederick Douglas Avenue, the Macklanburg Community Center on NW 117th Street, and others across the city. Participants can join without pre-registration—just show up, sign in, and compete in one of four age divisions, ranging from 6-8 years old to 18 and over. The event is organized by Oklahoma City Parks & Recreation, as reported by the City of Oklahoma.
The city's "Turkey Shoot" event offers a fun and inclusive way for community members to come together before Thanksgiving. Held at 1 p.m. earlier in the day, the event features cornhole competitions hosted by two senior centers, the Pete White Health & Wellness Center and the Will Rogers Senior Center. Residents aged 50 and older can participate with no registration required, simply sign in before the games start. The event blends traditional basketball with cornhole, allowing people of all ages to join in and compete for a turkey prize, as stated by the City of Oklahoma.
