ALTUS, Okla. (TNN) - People from across southwest Oklahoma came out to the first Southwest Banner and Buckle Bonanza this weekend in Altus.
Youth under 21 competed in livestock shows, particularly swine. It was also a chance to show off the new renovations taking place at the Jackson County Expo Center. Event organizer Jed Winters says it helps the competitors prepare for the upcoming Oklahoma Youth Expo. He says he dedicates his time to these showings because it helps the kids develop leadership skills, both inside the show ring and out.
Jackson County will open a mass COVID-19 vaccination site this week. So will Josephine County. Now that the state will be receiving less vaccine than initially planned, fewer people will be eligible to receive the shots.
