KAW CITY, OKLAHOMA
The original Kaw City was established in Oklahoma Territory in the Ox Bow Bend of the Arkansas River in 1902. This was an area ideally suited for farming and raising cattle. Later the oil industry had a great impact on the area. In 1962 it was decided the area was best suited as the site for building the Kaw Dam to provide flood control of the Arkansas River. The city would be under water, so the present site was purchased and the town started moving in 1968. The new Kaw City sits on a peninsula surrounded by the beauty of the Kaw Lake with 17,000 surface acres of open water and over 168 miles of shore line.

PONCA CITY, OKLAHOMA
Ponca City was created in true Oklahoma fashion during the land runs of the late 1800's. On September 16, 1893, homesteaders lined up for a race to claim one of the 160-acre farm sites in the area surrounding what became Ponca City. Certificates for town lots sold for $2 each. But it was the 1920's when Ponca City came alive. Outlandish parties, wild new music, the '20s was an era of gay abandon and roaring good fun. Another roaring was that of the oil wells, and with that sound came money! Oil millionaires E. W. Marland and Lew Wentz helped Ponca City come alive.

PAWHUSKA, OKLAHOMA
Pawhuska, capital of the Osage Nation, attributes much of its rich history and culture to the Osage tribe. The town was named after Pawhuska, chief of the Osage at the beginning of the 1800's. The origins of the Osage tribe date back to the Ice Age, though their link with Pawhuska began in 1871 when they bought this land back from the Cherokees. As perpetual owners of the mineral rights in the county, the Osage Indians became the richest people per capita in the world during the oil boom of the 1920's. The Osage Nation was also the beginnings of fortunes built by Frank Phillips, Harry Sinclair, George and Jean Paul Getty who sat under what was called the "Million Dollar Elm" in downtown Pawhuska and bid on Osage oil leases. The town was later the home of the first Boy Scout Troop in America, organized by Rev. John Mitchell in May, 1909.
