Let's Explore: Oxley Nature Center (Weather Backup – Coffee Social Edition)

** As it is Rainey today and uncertain on the afternoon forecast This is being moved to Panera at 1624 East 15th Street Tulsa, OK for those that wish to have good conversation and coffee instead. The event will be rescheduled for hopefully better weather! **

About this Social Meetup Event:
Let’s slow things down and explore Oxley Nature Center together.

This is a relaxed, curiosity-focused outing — not a long hike or fitness event. We’ll take our time walking through the marsh and boardwalk areas, check out the overlook tower, and make a short stop inside the visitor center.

I’ll be bringing binoculars to share for anyone interested in birdwatching or getting a closer look at wildlife along the way.

Expect an easy pace, conversation, and plenty of time to stop and look around.

Difficulty Level:

• Beginner-friendly / Low effort

What to Expect:

• Easy walking on flat trails and boardwalks
• Marsh and wetland exploration
• Observation tower views
• Brief visit inside the visitor center
• Optional bird and wildlife spotting

This is a short, casual visit, perfect if you want to get outside without committing to a long hike.

What to Bring:

• Comfortable walking shoes
• Weather-appropriate layers
• Water (especially if it’s warm)
• Bug spray (recommended for marsh areas)
• Optional: camera, notebook, or binoculars

Good to Know:

• Trails are mostly flat and well-maintained
• This event is weather-dependent
• No experience or special knowledge needed
• Just show up curious 😊

Weather Contingency:
If weather conditions don’t cooperate, we’ll pivot to a nearby indoor spot (such as Panera) to grab a drink and enjoy good conversation instead.

Look forward to seeing everyone there!
