Fundraising in Oklahoma's Stockyards City at McClintock Saloon & Chop House for the Flag Poles Honoring Our Veterans 501c3, feels like the right place for our hearts and OKC activities.

Polo players have heart, fortitude and more tenacious plans for River Park in 2023. Watch for us in the Stockyards Christmas Parade on Dec 3rd.

The provided flagpoles are placed at Veteran homes for no cost to the Veteran, to honor them and spread the love for our country through neighborhoods. Appx $250 will pay for the complete installation by Veteran volunteers. They recite the Pledge of Allegiance as the flag goes up.

Donate to them today!

God bless America, our OK Veterans and all who stand up for those who have sacrificed. Join us next year when it’s a bit warmer, to continue to fundraise through Polo on the River OKC efforts!

“The United States Marine Corps celebrates its 247th birthday TODAY, Thursday, Nov. 10, 2022.

In 1775, the Corps was born out of a Philadelphia tavern during the American Revolutionary War.

For those who have earned the title of Marine, Nov. 10 is celebrated as if it was their own birthday, serving as a "yearly reminder of the brave spirit that has compelled young men and women to defend our nation and its interests for more than two centuries.” HAPPY BIRTHDAY and thank you (and all veterans) for protecting our freedom.
