Feb. - June 2021 Summary (Limited Retirement Coverage) -- June 29, 2021

Today (May 11, 2021) marks the 122nd anniversary of the first issue of "The Collinsville News" (May 11, 1899) and the 22nd anniversary of the "Newspaper Museum In Collinsville" opening (May 11, 1999). -- Ted Wright The "News" was active for ~115 years and owned by the Wright family for the first 88 years.

CHS Baseball State Bound -- with a Regional final 7-5 win over Claremore Friday May 7, 2021 (per Chan 6 news)

Playoff Baseball-- Thursday May 6, 2021 -- Collinsville's HS Baseball boys picked up two wins (22-0 over Tulsa Hale & 9-4 over Claremore) and will take on a 1-loss challenger Friday.

Playoff Soccer -- Monday 4, 2021 -- Collinsville's Scoocer Girls hosted the first ever state soccer playoff game here. Regulation ended 1-1 followed by two scoreless overtime periods. McAlester won the penalty kick tie breaker and will advance.

FYI -- I just renewed the hosting for cvilleok.com for 3 more years. I plan to let it drop offline after that time (2024) to eliminate that expense in the future. I am making very few updates now (about 10 months into retirement). I have hundreds of other projects I am working on now. -- Ted Wright -- May 1, 2021 ---- So, I will still have my copy of 18+ years of Collinsville happnings & history (22GB), but YOU won't be able to see it for free like now. I have other priorities now. A long term "solution" is for several Collinsville volunteers to step up and re-form the Collinsville Historical Society. It's not my job any more.

Richard Lee Lucky Bradshaw (February 25, 1936 - April 15, 2021) -- CHS 1955 "Known to all as Lucky rather than Richard, this name was earned one eventful night at the unbelievable age of 9 hours old. A tornado swept through his home carrying him away from his family. Searchers riding on horseback and carrying lanterns eventually found Lucky shielded underneath a glass window, completely unharmed, but his gown frozen stiff. His parents were taken to separate hospitals until they could be identified and reunited. Once together, his mother quickly and officially added Lucky to his birth name."

I should likely stop the count as cvilleok.com is mostly inactive now ... but the web site started it's 19th year March 20, 2021. -- Ted Wright
