After months of planning, a new veterans medical clinic in Canadian County is nearly ready to begin seeing patients.
The clinic will be located in Yukon, a few blocks south of Integris Canadian Valley Hospital. The goal is for the clinic to be open before the beginning of 2021. The clinic is one of two that soon will open in central Oklahoma to provide health-care services to area veterans.
The other center will be in Norman.
With last week’s shutout of Southeast, El Reno High School’s football team clinched the District 5A-1 title outright, the Indians first league title since 2009.
However, that’s not good enough for El Reno head coach Chuck Atchison.
“There is no doubt we are district champions, but we don’t want to go out there and slip up and lose to Altus. We want to finish this thing up right and see who we play next in the playoffs,” said Atchison.
El Reno will host Altus Friday, with kickoff set for 7 p.m.
With three time and location changes and no real practices leading up to its game with Southeast last week due to a freak October ice storm, El Reno High School’s football team was missing its usual spark.
And it showed on Halloween day as the Indians looked sluggish early before powering through three turnovers en route to a 46-0 victory of the Spartans.
El Reno improved to 6-2 on the season and 5-0 in the District 5A-1 standings with the shutout.
