Each year, Janice Cox dreams of setting a record for the National Letter Carriers Association Food Drive in El Reno.

Cox has been coordinating the Letter Carriers Food Drive in El Reno for the past 18 years. She would love to hit the 10,000-pound mark for donated food items.

Two new windows have been installed at the Historic Fort Reno Visitors Center.

Debra Kauffman, president of Historic Fort Reno Inc. and full-time volunteer, said 23 windows in the building need to be replaced.
