WOODWARD (Woodward County) Originally home to Kiowa, Cheyenne, Comanche and Arapahoe tribes, the town of Woodward was established in 887 when the railroad arrived. The railroad made Woodward a stop on the Great Western Cattle Trail. Woodward grew as the depot shipped thousands of cattle east and soon got a reputation as a rough-and-tumble frontier town. Located in the western quadrant of the Cherokee Outlet, the town began 6 years before the outlet was officially opened to non-indian settlers as a provisioning point for Fort Supply. Woodward s story forever changed the night of April 9, 947 when a tornado ripped across the city. History would now be measured as having happened before or after the tornado. In November 956, Woodward began a new adventure - oil and gas production; McCormick # became the country s discovery gas well, and a boom of more than twenty years followed. Now the gateway to NW Oklahoma, Woodward showcases the enduring spirit of the original pioneers with genuine hometown hospitality and Wild West history. One of the original seven State Parks built in the 90 s, Boiling Springs State Park is a natural oasis on the plains. The park is named after the natural boiling spring that still flows and keeps the lake full and the surrounding land fertile through even the driest of summers. The Boiling Springs Golf Course, one of the finest municipal golf courses in the country, provides players one of the most challenging playing experiences in the region. During the Great Depression, local Works Progress Administration projects 4 209 RedCarpetCountry.com BEAVER.HLF.BIG.PG.209.indd 4-5 included the damming of an artesian well (a failed oil well venture), which formed Crystal Beach Lake and the adjacent park. Crystal Beach Park includes Crystal Beach Aquatics Center, Fuller Park Baseball field, a spring-fed lake always stocked with a variety of fish, tennis courts, football fields, indoor and outdoor sports facilities, picnic areas, a playground and a band-shell. Crystal Beach Lake facility has also become home to the Elks Rodeo, which began in 929. Plains Indians & Pioneers Museum provides visitors with a glimpse of the old Wild West.
