Another delay on the Boardwalk at Bricktown? Your questions answered<\/a><\/span><\/p>\nThe program, Gross said, asks students what kind of life they want to live, who they are as individuals, and to then look at career options as\u00a0the last point in the process. The program also has an emotional wellness check-in tool that monitors the overall well-being of middle- and high-school students throughout the school year.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\nCurrently, the program is being used in 200 school districts, Gross said. His goal is to expand it throughout Oklahoma City, within which 25 school districts fully or partially operate. He is eager to see how Find Your Grind can help change Oklahoma being dead last in education among all 50 states.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\u201cI\u2019ve already met with some of the amazing superintendents in Oklahoma City who are excited to bring this on and help tell the story,\u201d Gross said. \u201cAnd in the physical space of the entertainment district that we\u2019ll be doing, we want to actually build a couple of physical spaces where education can exist.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
In a district in which Westbrook has already stated he will be bringing his eye on fashion to the district as part of his role as creative director, Gross said the educational component will not be limited to Find Your Grind. The overall development is expected to hit $2 billion with plans including hotels, restaurants, entertainment and housing.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\u201cWe believe there is a lot of opportunity across sports, fashion and culinary arts,\u201d Gross said. \u201cThere will be these different and exciting entrepreneurial career pathways that will be taught within the entertainment district.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\nConstruction on the stadium is expected to start in 2026 and completion in 2028. Gross said talks are still early about how a music festival might be launched in the district. The latest designs for the stadium show it can host concert crowds of between 15,000 and 18,000.<\/p>\n
Gross Labs already has relationships with soccer legend David Beckham, golf champion Tiger Woods and singer Avril Levene. Gross said he believes his family office can add to the culture of the new district and the ecosystems that will be created on what is now an empty field.\u00a0He believes a music festival can and will be a part of that mix.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m on the board of a company called Breakaway that is the largest independent touring festival in the country,\u201d Gross said. \u201cNext year we\u2019re doing 14 festivals in different states across the country. We have artists like the Chainsmokers to Alesso and John Summit and big DJ, EDM and pop acts that do these festivals. So how do we do this in OKC?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.oklahoman.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"See OKC’s Scissortail Park’s new SPARKLE – Holiday Walk up close The Christmas light display is a fundraiser for the Scissortail Park Foundation that’s designed to help fund community programming.
