Councilor District 5

trail.pngChris Trail and his wife, Sarah, have been married 15 years. They have three children, Will Gunnar, 7, Hayden, 3, and Ella Grace, 2. One of the primary reasons Chris ran for the Tulsa City Council was because he wants his kids to have a community worthy of their pride. He wants to ensure they have a safe, prosperous and beautiful place where they can live, work and raise families of their own someday.

Chris currently operates a successful family business, Ike's Chili, which is the oldest existing restaurant in Oklahoma. Since 1908, the Trail family has been serving Tulsans from all walks of life. Every day Chris has the opportunity to visit with diverse customers, giving him a clear picture of what Tulsans envision for our city's future.

Chris is a fourth generation Tulsan. He graduated from Berryhill High School and attended Northeastern Oklahoma A & M College. Chris and his wife are members of First Baptist Tulsa, and his wife Sarah works there in childrens ministries two days a week. Chris wants what is best for Tulsa - secure families in beautiful neighborhoods, thriving businesses and a bustling downtown.
