The Canadian Church of Christ’s traditional GO! Weekend—now in its eighth year of community-wide clean-up projects here—is packing up the shovels and work gloves and heading up US 83 this year to help the tornado-stricken town of Perryton. The date that was set for Canadian’s GO! Weekend—Saturday, July 22—has now been dedicated to Perryton’s recovery.

Mathew Eleazar Ramirez, 11, of Perryton, Texas, passed away on June 15, 2023 in Perryton. Funeral Services were held Tuesday, June 27, at 10 am, at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Perryton, officiated by Father Cesar Gomez. Burial followed in Ochiltree Cemetery. Funeral arrangements were by Boxwell Brothers Funeral Home, Inc. of Perryton.

River Valley Pioneer Museum Director Tamera Julian decided a saddle exhibit would be the ticket for this year’s July 4th celebration. She had noticed last year that rodeo cowboys and their families from all over were among the visitors the museum attracted during the weekend of activities in Canadian.
