A multi-billion dollar development is coming to northeast Oklahoma.

 

A park called American Heartland Theme Park and Resort was announced at a special event this morning in Vinita.  KGGF's Matt Jordan was there at the unveiling and says the timeline for the massive project is fairly aggressive.

 

Gene Bicknell of Pittsburg is the Founder and Chief Creative Officer of the project, which is projected to be a two billion dollar investment that will include a 125 acre theme park, entertainment, hotels and an RV park along Route 66 just west of Grand Lake. Hundreds of people attended today's presentation at the Craig County Fairgrounds.
