Someone To Watch Out For...

Enid's own Jacy Johnson (daughter of the ever famous Renee Shimanek Settlemires), will be performing this weekend! Jacy is a senior at Enid High School and plans to attend Northwestern Oklahoma State University this fall.

She is involved in show choir at EHS, is on the principal's honor roll and was the 2009 May Fete Queen.

Jacy has traveled to Kansas City and Dallas with her mom the last two summers to audition for "American Idol."

She will participate in the Hennessey Hootenanny at 7 p.m., Saturday in the Hennessey Public Library Auditorium.

Head down and show her a little Enid support!

Another One Bites The Dust?

According to the signs, Enid will be losing a second major movie rental business in less than a year. BlockBuster Video on west Garriott, in front of Oakwood Mall, looks to be closing the doors on doing business in Enid. Hollywood Video closed up and left Enid several months ago.

And it's no wonder. I hear more and more people everyday talking about renting movies online and through services like Netflix. The Red Box rentals in front of McDonalds have also become very popular at $1 a rental.

Enid is left with two major movie rental locations, Hastings in Sunset Plaza and Family Video at Van Buren and Maine.

Carnegie Library in Enid

I don't think we've posted this old picture of the Carnegie library. The quality on it was pretty bad so I tweaked it in Photoshop and used a watercolor filter on it. (click photo for a larger view)

Website ideas.

Watch for Enid Spay Day

The Enid SPCA is doing a SPAY Day Tuesday, February 23rd, to raise awareness and help the area in becoming a no-kill community. We have started a program called SNIP (Spay Neuter Immunize Pets) as a low cost assistance program for families with a total income under $40,000 per year. Enid has a pet overpopulation problem that can be greatly improved with responsible pet ownership.

Their website has information about the new program and a form to fill out for people interested in assistance. They are hoping to start out by participating in national SPAY Day, which is the last Tuesday of February each year, and continue on with days each month throughout the year to provide low cost spay and neuter assistance to the public. They are so excited about this new program and would love your help in spreading the word.

Jack the cat (pictured below) is currently available to adopt.

Reminder!!

Well Enid, it's that time once again and I didn't want any of you to forget. It's Valentine's weekend! If you have not made plans or picked up a gift this would be a good time to do it. Valentine's is on Sunday so getting out on Friday or Saturday night might be the best plan of action.

Jewelry, flowers, candy and cards are the norm to give as gifts. If you have not ordered flowers yet you might have to pick them up yourself. A coffee or fruit basket would make a great alternative to sweet candy. Other great gift ideas include Kindles, iPods, GPS systems or a bottle of their favorite wine.

The restaurants will be crowded so plan ahead and make sure you know your movie times. Everyone have a great weekend and enjoy spending time with your sweetie!

Enid's Day To Vote

Today is the day to vote if you care about the current bond issues. Polls will be open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. today at your normal voting spots.

This is an Enid Public Schools bond issue. The vote is split into two questions, one for $98 million for construction and repairs of school buildings and the other $800,000 for transportation needs.

These construction projects will address the overcrowding problem in Enid's schools. It will also help repair many older schools that are falling apart. The construction is planned to be completed in 24-36 months.

It's your choice Enid. Your property taxes will increase about $12.02 for every $100 of property taxes paid.

What will you get with this bond issue? Here are a few benefits: Each school site in the district will be improved. A brand new Garfield Elementary School. A new west side elementary school.
Expansion at Waller Middle School to replace portables. Up to date technology for all schools. Instruments for music education. And new buses.

Get out and vote!
