To combat that the local shopper paper is promoting ‘Trading on the Trail’ event in Septem- ber.  “We have the ability to reach approximately 75,000 people with our weekly distribution of our direct mailed papers in Stephens, Grady and Caddo Counties and thought maybe we could promote an area wide event when temperatures are a little more comfortable.”  Watts said he was calling the event “Trading on the Trail” in light of the fact that these three counties lie along the famous Chisholm Trail.  “So, both publications are offering yard and garage sale ads for the September 27th issue at the reduced rate of $10 for an ad up to 20 words to help promote the event and a way to say thanks to both our read- ers and advertisers who support us all year,” said Watts. “It’s a way to give back and help people get rid of items before winter sets in and helps people find bargains on items they can use. Hopefully it’s a win-win for everyone.”  Some rules apply to the free ads. They have to be about personal sales, at least three items must be listed in the ads, and ads are up to 20 words and abbreviations. Words over 20 will be an additional fifty-cents per word. The $10 ads are for September 27th issue only and if placed before the Friday September 22nd dead- line will include both publications that is mailed to 27,000 homes. The plan is to list the ads according to their location with headers in both papers that help out of towners locate the sale.  “Remember deadline is Friday September 22nd to be in both publications that go to 27,000 homes. Now, let’s go sell something,” said Watts.

The U.S. has at least 600 fewer nursing homes than six years ago, according to a WSJ analysis of federal data. As a result, frail elderly patients are stuck in hospitals, a danger- ous place for seniors, waiting for somewhere to go—sometimes for months. The U.S. pop- ulation 65 and older is expected to swell from 56 million in 2020 to 81 million by 2040. After watching the news, I tell you, if your car is running, I will vote for it! August Report for Sunshine OHCE  Sunshine OHCE met on August 3rd, at the Stephens County Fairgrounds. Linda Heilman and Jerri Heilman were the hostesses. There were 21 members present and Cole Wright and Gage Wright were guests. The devo- tion was about being an “Uppity Woman” which is defined as one who lifts their eyes UP to the Lord, taken from Psalm 121.  Many preparations were made this month by all OHCE groups in advance of the Stephens County Fair which was held August 16-19. It was lots of work but great fun as well! Seeing the creativity and talent of folks in Stephens County was amazing. Everyone has a full year to create something to enter in the fair next year and are encouraged to plan on entering. We congratulate Comanche Homemakers for their 1st Place in their OHCE Booth.  The sewing class held on July 27 was a success and another sewing opportunity awaits. Two, one day “Crazy Eight” quilt classes will be held on September 11th and 12th from 9-3 so bring your lunch. The cost is $30 to defray the costs associated with bringing in our instructor, April Green of Cleveland County OHCE. Contact Gina Flesher @ 580-467-0299 if you would like to attend one of these days. A supply list is available, and this should be great fun!  The next meeting is scheduled for September 7th. to be held at the Stephens County Fairgrounds. If you would like more information about the Sunshine Group or OHCE, call the OSU Ext. office at 580-255-0510. Prospective members are welcome and encouraged to attend. SUE A. SMITH, REPORTER-SUNSHINE OHCE Walk to Remember remembered by Blake Moren, CTCN Community Correspondant  Duncan Regional Hospital (DRH) hosted its annual “Walk to Remember” on Aug. 22. It took place at the DRH Learning Center.  Executive Director with DRH Community R lationships and DRH Health Foundation Cyndi Crook said 2023 was th twelfth ye r for the walk. The main goal of the event was to benefit the Chisholm Trail Hospice.  Crook said, “(It’s) a way to honor a loved one who may have passed this year or 20 years ago.” she said.    The walk began at 7:30 p.m. After the walk, they hosted a remembrance ceremony. During this ceremony, loved ones’ names are read out loud and those participatin pinned ribbon with their loved ones’ name on it onto a wreath.  “It means a lot to everyone to have their loved one’s name heard and know they aren’t forgotten,” Crook said. Crook also said participants could write their loved ones’ names on the ribbon prior to the ceremony. Is there ever a time when mattresses are not on sale?
