The link above will take you to Showcase promoters listed here on the site. I'd suggest you stay with proven showcasers...They tend to hold events in more densely populated areas, or within a few hours drive of "hotbeds", like Texas, Calif, Fla., & Georgia. You may need to travel to Kansas for a "regional" showcase.
Perfect Game is by far the most extensive & talked about here frequently. The Fords are terrific people & Jerry posts on this site quite a bit. Give him a call, you'll be glad!
Personally, I saw no need to try them all (or any,) other than PG). The Baylor Underclass, &/or Top Prospect, along with Sunshine South Houston), are terrific. And, Okla Coaches are seen at PG's WWBA Tournaments in Marietta & Florida every summer & fall.
Team One has "teamed up" with Baseball Factory. Some posters may be able to contribute opinions....mostly on the East coast & Fla.
There are big differences in all these operations & I'd suggest you do your homework.
As for a specific "Oklahoman" showcase, I don't know of any one. However, you may want to check with recruiters at OSU, OU, **** Roberts, & a couple of the top Juco programs. Often the schools will "co-op" a smaller showcase. Your HS coach or some of the top select programs/ facilities (like All-Star in Tulsa, or Okla. Baseball) may have some input here, too.
Good luck & keep asking questions!!

I will be in Southern california in summer so I will likely attend one down there.I just need to gather some information.
I have no problem with driving to a near by state for a showcase(Texas,Ark,etc) though Im pretty sure that OU and OSU have something going on
Thanks for your help!

future - I just had a chance to meet a gentleman from Top96 who runs showcases all over the US in conjunction with Louisville Slugger. You can learn more about them at: http://www.top96.com. They are a growing organization which is very positive because that means more and more players are partaking in their showcases. They will be running over 20 showcases this year, up from 8 last year, and will have over 2000 players attend.
Just make sure you DON'T attend anything by Brian Rupe.
Check with your head coach, he probably has a stack of letters he has gotten about different showcases. Also, you may want to check out http://www.coachesaid.com for a forum with only Oklahoma highschool bballers. They will sometimes post showcases and tryouts that are going on in OK. Also you may want to look into the sophmore Sunbelt classic(though it can be pricey), I went to it last year and ended up getting invites to other showcases and letters from colleges. Also try http://www.boomtownballyards.com for showcases coming up that they are having.
