    People have rallied to save BC Franklin Park, and the writing is still on the wall or in this case the sign and sidewalks. "It really hurts my heart to hear that the city is going to tear or try to tear the park down," said Patricia Gaines. Longtime residents like her say BC Franklin Park is a source of pride. It's also a place where children can be kids and stay out of harm's way.

Blizzards, record heat, tornadoes, and even earthquakes.

It's been a rough year across the state.

Now, you can prove you "survived Oklahoma 2011."

A local printing shop is selling these custom made t-shirts.

It mentions "snowmageddon," the number of days above 100 degrees, the tornado outbreak, and the 5.6 earthquake we all experienced.

The owner says a casual conversation led to the idea.

"I was just joking around with friends about everything that's gone on with the weather," says Vincent Ponteri, Inked Custom Printing owner. "It just kinda came about and we started thinking let's get it involved and do a fundraiser."

The t-shirts are $15 each.

$5 for each shirt goes to the Red Cross Disaster Relief fund.

They hope to raise $25,000.

To buy one, go to their website: www.inkedcustomprinting.com
