Serving the community of Howe since 1963
Volume #52, Edition #43
Howe's That by Monte Walker It was one year ago that the first Howe Enterprise was published since the late 1990's. With some support from family members, I came up with the first publication which came out on March 17, 2014. While the first few editions were extremely raw, the readership rocketed due to the obvious need of a local news source dedicated to Howe and only Howe. By July, I had purchased the old Howe Enterprise, which my grandfather owned and operated before selling it to the Echols family about three months after I was born. The Rideout family purchased it from the Echols and had it for 38 years and eventually changed the name of the publication from the Howe Enterprise to the Texoma Enterprise.

"Beatlemania" to hit Howe in September In 2010, Howe's All-School Reunion finished off the weekend celebration with a performance from "Elvis" who was actually Kraig Parker, a well-known impersonator of the Rock 'N Roll King. That performance was well received and five years later, the Howe Ex-Students Association committee for this year's reunion has moved from the 1950's to the 1960's and will have Beatles tribute band, "A Hard Night's Day" will perform on September 19 with the show starting at 7:30 pm in the Howe High School Cafetorium. Tickets will be $25 and 300 will be available.
The All-School Reunion takes place every five years and all of the proceeds go to the Howe Ex-Students Association Scholarship Fund. Each year, a Howe senior receives a $600 scholarship from the exstudents. Last year's recipient was Jesse Akins.

New marquee sign in front of Howe High School
So here we are. I now have one full year of publications under my belt and the arrow is still pointed up as far as readership goes. Lets face it, I'm an amateur editor just trying to make a living by serving the community in which I love. If I can make a living by serving, then that's good enough for me.

A new marquee sign has been erected in front of Howe High School at 200 Ponderosa Rd. The large LED sign has just about as many bells and whistles as one would need. According to Superintendent Kevin Wilson, most of the cost of the sign was donated by The new Howe High School marquee sign
