Close to two dozen people involved in the television and film industry in Oklahoma toured El Reno recently, guests of the newly created El Reno TV and Film Commission.

Steve Maddox, who helped create the local effort, organized and led the tour. The producers, directors and others involved in television and film met at the Elks Lodge on a Friday evening.

Kenny Haydon of Midwest Bus drove the group around town while Maddox explained what El Reno offers for TV and film.

“I was nervous about pulling off our first mixer,” Maddox said.

Canadian County should put any funds it receives as part of the American Rescue Plan into the search for a permanent water source.

Marc Hader, District 1 commissioner, made the statement at last week’s Legislative Breakfast put on by the El Reno Chamber of Commerce.

Hader, along with Sen. Lonnie Paxton, R-Tuttle, and Steve Carson, representative for U.S. Sen. James Lankford, addressed the audience at Redlands Community College.
