Renata Horn greeted well wishers with cake and a party hat Thursday Feb. 24th as she prepares to retire next week after 21 years at the "Collinsville News".
Mr. Wright,

The baseball program has their new lockers.

Money raised from the Diamond Dinner helped pay for them along with a generous donation from Coach and Mrs. Reeder.

When you have time, take a look. They look great.

Congratulations to CHS Principal Cory Slagle and his students. I saw on FOX News Feb. 20th that Cory had been named to FOX's Jefferson Award. The TV coverage dicussed the Cards In Action (CIA) and also mentioned a new program the students are working on: "Pennies for Puppies" to help raise funds for the new Collinsville Animal Shelter. -- Ted

Pie Auction March 7th
Ted,
Thank you for putting our track schedules on your site. If I could, I would also like to mention that we will be having our 10th annual pie auction March 7th at 6:00 in the HS commons. We will have dinner catered by Chili's, then the auction, which will begin @ 6:30. This is our primary fund raiser and we need as much support as we can get.

Thanks again,
Kelly Anderson (Feb. 22)

Ted,

The next meeting of the Victory Cherokee Organization (VCO) will be at the Cherokee Casino in Catoosa. It will be on the 2nd floor Ball Room at 6:30 p.m. March 9th. We will have organizations from Washington and Tulsa County that would Sperry, Collinsville, Tulsa and Bartlesville. Rogers County might also participate. Our main speaker will be Cherokee Chief Chad Smith. Each organization will be giving a presentation.

If you go, you need to park on the West side of building and go in from the West side and you will be on the 2nd floor. This will be easier than parking out in the main parking lot for it will be full 24 - 7.

Thank you Danny Stanley (Feb. 22, 2006)

Get Onboard The Next Photo Search
If I get your request before March 10th the cost for an individual student's sports photo CD will be $30. That will allow me to gather photos in one search through all my archive photos (as I build senior pages). Later requests will be at least $35 and not available until much later.
