There was a large group on hand last Friday at noon for the official dedication of the new swimming pool in Mangum. As stated in last week’s article the pool has been open several weeks, but the dedication was postponed while a new plaque was being made for the pool house entrance.

Young and old alike came out to celebrate the fact that, after being closed for a full year, the children of Mangum now have a new pool that will serve the needs of the community for years to come thanks in large part to the generosity of local businessman, Jewett Scott.

	Last February the Mangum Tigers hosted the Merritt Oilers in  a regular season basketball game.  But this particular game had special meaning for Mangum coach, Jeff Carlisle.  For the past few years Mangum has participated in the Coaches Vs. Cancer game to raise funds for cancer research.  In December 2008 Coach Carlisle’s mother, Vickie Kenney was diagnosed with cancer.  She passed away in November 2009.  The Coaches Vs. Cancer game against Merritt was played in her honor.  Mangum raised over $3,000 and won 2nd in the state.  Bethel School placed first with their effort.  Shown with the 2nd place trophy is Coach Carlisle with his two sons Zach and Ryan.
