The Canadian County Health Department is seeking a federal grant to help local health-care personnel fight the spread of COVID-19 and improve public health.

Canadian County officials will apply for the Community Health Workers for COVID-19 Response and Resilient Communities Grant.

The Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is offering funding to county health departments through the CARES (Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security) Act of 2020.

People are ready to get together.

That was the indication as thousands turned out for the 23rd Annual A Small Town Weekend.

The crowds enjoyed mild weather and plenty of classic car enthusiasm as the three-day event created by the El Reno Cruisers Car Club paid tribute to Route 66 and life in small-town America.

Population gains in Canadian County will mean the creation of a new Senate seat and El Reno could be on the verge of gaining more of a voice in House races.

Sen. Lonnie Paxton said Senate District 18, currently in Wagoner County in eastern Oklahoma, will be moved to the Yukon and Bethany area.

The new seat will give Canadian County an extra voice at the Senate table, Paxton said.

Paxton, R-Tuttle, served as chairman of the Senate Redistricting Committee. After a vote of 46-1 to adopt the redistricting recommendations, Paxton said he is pleased.

Canadian County commissioners purchased property near the new Expo Center to build a sewage lagoon.

The move comes a month before the new $15 million fairgrounds is set to open and after the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) informed the county hauling sewage from the site would not be permitted.

Maggie Miller’s school year was unlike most. As a mother of two young children, her balancing act is one worthy of the Big Top.

Miller, 36, of Mustang, began each day with getting her pre-kindergarten and first-grade sons ready for distance learning.

Eventually, she had distance learning of her own as an enrollee in Canadian Valley Technology Center’s Accounting and Business Management program.

Distance learning was an option for CV Tech students this year.

OKLAHOMA CITY – Legislation that requires sexual assault survivors receive information on trauma care sooner has been signed into law.

Kay Floyd, D-OKC, expands protections to victims of sexual assault regardless of participation in a criminal investigation of their assault. The act allows for an advocate to be made available during a sexual assault examination.

OKLAHOMA CITY - Oklahoma State Treasurer Randy McDaniel said he will not seek re-election next year but plans to continue serving as treasurer until his current term ends on Jan. 9, 2023.

And while the weather kept the turnout small, those who did attend heard some stirring comments reflecting on the freedom-saving sacrifices made by members of the U.S. military.
