For Arbor Day, April 26, 2024, the City of Oxford hosted the 6th grade class for tree planting and pizza! The kids helped plant 2 new trees on the south loop of Napawalla Park.  They learned the proper way to plant a tree and then got to have Casey's Pizza for lunch! Thank you to everyone that helped make Arbor Day a success.

Oxford’s history really began in 1869, when the Osage Indians camped near the large cottonwood ford which winds along the Ninnescah River and dumps into the Arkansas River. Chief Napawalla first gave Oxford its name. When the Treaty of 1870 was signed, the Osage Tribe moved from the area and left thousands of acres of the town “Napawalla” to be purchased by settlers.
