Historical Highlight (July 2022)

This Month in Sapulpa History...

Sapulpa was to have its first park. The Wells Packing Company had a small lake on its site and was cleaning it and the area around it for the public's use. People were already using it for swimming and the company planned on building a bath house and a fishing dock. Roads were to be built for better access to the park. (Sapulpa Evening Light, July 20, 1910)

There are still remnants of this lake to this day. It is located east of the theatre and west of Brown Street.
