What is Red Dirt Dog Park?

Puppy Adventure Weekend (PAW) is organized and hosted by Red Dirt Dog Park (RDDP), Oklahoma’s premier group for the puppy community. Established to reflect the evolving, relaxed culture of the puppy lifestyle, RDDP provides a safe and supportive environment where individuals can authentically express themselves. The organization is committed to fostering an inclusive community that encourages friendship, personal growth, and a sense of belonging.

In addition to PAW, RDDP facilitates a variety of smaller events throughout the year, creating opportunities for connection and engagement within the community. With nearly 150 members, predominantly based in the Oklahoma City Metro area, RDDP is led by Pup Blitzkrieg, alongside co-administrators Pup Bluewolf, Handler Chris, and Pup Ace. Together along with their amazing members, they work to uphold RDDP’s mission of cultivating a welcoming space where all members can thrive.

What is the District Hotel?

The District Hotel, located at 2200 NW 40th St, Oklahoma City, OK 73112, is a notable establishment within the city’s LGBTQ+ community. Formerly known as the Habana Inn, the hotel has a rich history dating back to the 1970s, when it became a central hub for LGBTQ+ nightlife along NW 39th Street, also referred to as “The Strip.” This area has long been recognized as a prominent LGBTQ+ district in Oklahoma City.

The hotel offers a variety of amenities, including two outdoor pools, a lounge bar, and proximity to several nearby nightclubs and bars, making it a vibrant destination for both locals and visitors. Its location within the NW 39th Street Enclave places it at the heart of one of the largest LGBTQ+ districts in the Great Plains and central United States.

In recent years, The District Hotel has undergone renovations to enhance its facilities while maintaining its commitment to serving the LGBTQ+ community. It continues to be a popular destination for those seeking an inclusive and welcoming environment in Oklahoma City.
