5 years ago By News Staff

My sister and I love Thai food, and she whipped up this delicious curry in under 30 minutes! The amount of green curry paste will determine the heat index. We like it spicy and went with 3 tablespoons. This dish can be made with shrimp, chicken, or just loads of vegetables. Kaffir lime leaves, that add much to this dish, can be purchased online.

5 years ago By Alison Kennedy

As Joann Billings wakes up in her home in Canadian, she wonders what the day will bring. She might spend the morning watering her vegetable garden; make some progress on her latest needlepoint, a portrait of wildflowers in a meadow; and spend some time playing with her West Highland Terrier, Allie. At some point, several of her grandchildren will drift in her front door, wondering if there’s any of Ma’s homemade snacks on hand. In the afternoon, she will work on sewing clothing protectors for the residents at the Edward Abraham Nursing Home.

5 years ago By News Staff

It has been months of quarantine for many of us, and the urge to get out of the house and enjoy the warmer weather is palpable. Summer during COVID-19 isn’t quite the same as years past, but that doesn’t mean summer 2020 has to be a bummer.

Hanes and Betts take Rotary to the beach

5 years ago By A Rotary Report By Sarah Rader

Curt McPherson hosted Lacy Hanes and Meagan Betts of Canadian River Beach Club as our program. Lacy gave a brief background on the CRBC, stating that a loose CRBC started in 2008 with a chili cook-off to help raise money for state football rings. Then, in the fall of 2009, John Julian, L.H. Webb, and Doug Benge had approaching birthdays. Instead of having a private party, they decided to have a communitywide calf fry to celebrate and give back to Canadian. That year, they had 28 teams and raised $2,000 for the Ministerial Alliance, establishing the annual Calf Fry Cook-off as we now know it.
