During the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, local entrepreneur Chad Ford found peace on the golf course and healing through art. Inspired by these personal moments of clarity, he dreamed of creating a space where his own children—his “three birds”—could thrive. A place where they could grow strong through sport, express themselves through creativity, and feel grounded by the natural world.

 

What started as a personal dream quickly grew into a mission to share that opportunity with others. Founding 3Bird Kids Foundation Inc., Chad brought this vision to life in northeast Oklahoma City. Today, 3Bird Golf Park is more than a golf center—it’s a vibrant community space where the joy of play, the beauty of nature, and the power of art come together.

 

Here, moments become memories, healing happens in unexpected ways, and every visitor—young or old—is invited to connect, create, and belong.
