About Ponca City, Oklahoma
Ponca City is a city in Kay County in the U.S. state of Oklahoma. Ponca City was created in 1893 as "New Ponca" after the United States opened the Cherokee Outlet for European-American settlement during the Cherokee Strip land run, the largest land run in United States history. Ponca City hosted minor league baseball from the 1920s through the 1950s. (Wikipedia)
