El Reno School Superintendent Craig McVay will join Mayor Matt White Thursday afternoon for El Reno Live.

The pair created El Reno Now, a monthly gathering, that was interrupted by COVID-19.

The program was held at the Public Safety Center off SW 27th and featured updates on city and school happenings as well as guest speakers. A banquet held to celebrate the program after its first year and the accomplishments throughout the community raised more than $15,000 for four local nonprofits.
