Something else for the kids, there's an extreme entertainment center taking shape in Tulsa.

7-Ply is poised to become the area's first indoor skate park. Located at 58th and Garnett, it will offer a plywood paradise for skateboarders, BMX stunt riders and in-line skaters.

Owner, Jeremy Babbitt, â€œthe reactions been awesome. The locals have been coming out in droves. They want to check it out, see what's being made, to be able to put their influence in what they want in Tulsa. There's parks around Tulsa kids have to drive to, their are things they like, they don't like and we're trying to incorporate that into one park."

The park will also feature lounge, shopping and an arcade. There's even plans to host national and local exhibitions.

Grand opening is set for July 1st, call 250-4555 or log online at www.sk87ply.com.
