The Kitchen Sink V5I14

Greetings Stroud Citizens,

The Midpoint Corridor sponsored a road rally on June 22 that was a huge success. We had people stopping all day long to take photos and grab a few souvenirs. The rally included stops at all the towns along Route 66 from Edmond to Sapulpa. The rally rapped up that night at the Chicken Shack in Arcadia with prizes and awards. July 4th was fantastic! The weather was perfect, fireworks were awesome as always, and the band “Loose Gravel” did a wonderful job entertaining us that evening before the fireworks began. As always, a big shout out to the Firemen for the wonderful job they always do!

If you are a student or Teacher, your Summer is almost over! Where did it go? We need to get back in the habit of watching for buses and Kids and observing School zones. Our city pool’s last day for the summer will be August 11. Thank you to everyone who makes the pool happen, you are wonderful and very much appreciated!

Stroud Lake will host the Jet Boat Races August 17-18. The lake will be closed this weekend to camping and boating but will offer plenty of Racing excitement. Oklahoma Cross Country Racing Association will also host their annual motorcycle and 4-wheeler races at the lake September 7-8. We are still waiting on the boat dock I have been talking about all summer but hoping that comes soon. We have also started on our Equestrian Campsites that we received a grant to help build. Enjoy the lake every chance you get. If you get the opportunity, tell Jared what a good job he’s doing taking care of the lake.

There are a lot of good things happening in Stroud, thanks for being a part of that.
