Here's a quote about the Exploring Oklahoma project from Hardy Watkins, Executive Director of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department:

Our department is excited to sponsor the “Exploring Oklahoma with Children” project by MetroFamily and believe it offers the perfect vehicle to reach this important market segment. In this current economic environment, we feel the “Exploring Oklahoma with Children” promotion is an excellent opportunity to provide travel values and ideas to families staying close to home this travel season. I encourage you to learn more about the program and see if it can benefit your marketing efforts.
