In 1933, Moore Jewelry opened in downtown El Reno. That was the year the late Jimmy Moore was born. He and his brothers, Henry and Clyde, would grow up and join their mother and father, Clyde and Margie Moore, in operating the business that would later transform into JKM.

El Reno hosted two events over the weekend providing fun for all ages.

Dillingham and his band, Horseshoe Road, return to their Czech roots as they look to support that cultural and social center.

To make this the “best fair in county history,” the fair board is making plans to kick things up a notch or two by bringing in more vendors, said board member Ken Carpenter.
