This colorful spirit pole commemorating the 100th anniversary of Oklahoma statehood, is located in the parking lot of the Oklahoma Firefighter's Museum. Ten curvy metal pieces of very bright colors sit atop an approximately 15 ft tall pole. The pieces sway in the wind, and bang against each other to make a clanging noise on windy days.
