Enid on News 9 at 6 pm

News 9 did a story on the filming of "The Killer Inside Me", tonight on their 6 o'clock newscast. I was asked if they could use a few of our Enid Buzz photos and we gave permission.

This video was shot off of the TV and is a little stretched..

Free Children's Performance!

Monty Harper, a multi-award-winning singer and song writer, will appear at the Cherokee Strip Conference Center on June 30th at 2:30 p.m., as part of the library's Summer Reading Program. Monty's songs range anywhere from the scientific behavior of dinosaurs to the fun and wacky songs of bugs, dragons, and singing books. He always stresses the importance of reading during his programs.

His interest in performing began when he was working on his Master's Program at OSU. By the time he completed his degree he was booked at schools and libraries across the state and nation. He has won numerous awards and honors from Parent's Choice, Children's Music Web, and Kids Radio Mania among others. More information about Monty is available at www.montyharper.com.

Sign-up is not required, and the program is free! Come early to get a seat up front and enjoy Monty's show.

July 4th FYI

Due to construction issues and the lack of a clubhouse, Oakwood Country Club will not be having their annual fireworks display this year.

Area residents that normally park around the club can enjoy the fireworks at Meadowlake this year.

Make your plans now and happy summer!
