November 1st
This Saturday November 5th at the Peter Conser Home. A fun day has been planned for all ages, Quilts displayed in the house, Tractors on display what a site to see. A 1946 Hay Press will be on display and working, the hay press used 8-10 people to run the machine which was a time saver compared to the number of hands required to stack hay in the fields and then bring in wagons to the barn. There will also be entertainment throughout the day at the annual event that brings travelers from all over to LeFlore County. The line-up's for that entertainment will be announced later today.

FORT GIBSON — I have never seen that many points scored in a football game as the amount of points the scoreboard saw here Friday night between the Poteau Pirates and the homestanding Fort Gibson Tigers, which was won by the Tigers 59-56.
Today marks the beginning of a new month. It also marks when high school basketball and college basketball begins in LeFlore County.
Three of the five non-football schools — Leflore, Whitesboro and Wister — begin tonight, while Cameron and Howe will begin on Friday. Wister's teams will be in the Preston Festival Friday and Saturday, facing host teams Preston (Friday) and Haworth (Saturday).
After coaching the Whitesboro Bulldogs on the baseball field and the basketball court, Coach Bryan Cartwright is switching things up this high school hoop season.
Cartwright will take over coaching the Lady Bulldogs from Katie Blagg this season, which will begin at 6:30 p.m. tonight in the season opener at home against Battiest.
