El Reno and Canadian County turned out for the annual Veterans Day Parade, held Sunday under sunny skies and mild temperatures. Perfect weather for a parade honoring the men and women who have served our nation.
Lawmen would lead the parade with an armored vehicle belonging to the Canadian County Sheriff’s Office.
Right behind this colossal machine was a group of soldiers ready to march. Their faces were stoic, disciplined.
El Reno will choose a mayor on Tuesday, deciding between four individuals. The top vote-getter will serve a three-year term.
Matt White, 47, is the incumbent, having served four terms as El Reno mayor. He is being challenged by Steve Jensen, 52, a 20-year member of the El Reno Public School Board as well as Rita Thompson, 62, and Kevan Copelin, 62, both of whom have said they are mostly retired.
Early voting was held Thursday and Friday at the Canadian County Election Board. The polls for Tuesday's election will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
