BE POSITIVE

It's time to spring forward. I don't know about you, but I could use more color in my life right about now. This season, for me, has been hard to stay positive and even motivated. It seems like everything all around us is focused on the negative; it's exhausting and I am ready for a change!

Studies have shown, having a positive mindset can not only have an effect on your health, but your life in general. The mind is a powerful tool and when used correctly it can really change anything. According to a study by Hopkins Medicine, having hope and a positive mindset helps people make good health and life decisions as well as focus on things that matter.

But how do we apply this to our lives to see a positive outcome? Simple, smile more. When you think a nice thought about someone, say it. Reframe your mind and determine if your motivation comes from making a difference or making a point.

We all could benefit from a little more kindness. I hope you join me in springing forward this season with positivity and determination to make the best of every situation. I have LOVED being a member of "Chickasha Positively Speaking" on FaceBook and getting reminded why I love our community so much. This is what I choose to focus on. Let's make a positive difference.

Livin' Local

We took a day to explore the local retail shops and show off the wide variety of styles right here in town. There is defintely something for everyone in Chickasha. The best part - trying on was easy as every shop owner new exactly what size and style would look great on us!

Tuesday Night Scramble

The Club at Chickasha

Every Tuesday

What's your favorite place in town?

It's a tie between Shannon Springs Park and the Chickasha Sports Complex.

What makes this place your favorite spot in town?

Those places hold a special place in my heart because that's where community members and families gather together to participate in different events. That to me is what "Community" is all about. No matter the event at the park or what tournament is at the complex, they are full of people enjoying life and our wonderful town.

What was your first impression when you visited?

Many years ago, Joshua Woods and I used to travel from OKC down to Ft. Sill to pick up things for our uniforms etc back when we served in the Army. We would stop in Chickasha for fuel and a meal and each time I would always leave thinking how nice and welcoming the people that I interacted with were.

What unique features or qualities does this place have that made it stand out to you?

To me, Chickasha has a unique blend of city living and country appeal. We have wide open spaces, but at the same time, we have almost everything someone would need. If you did need something that a local Chickasha business doesn't offer, we are just 30-45 min away from the "big city" depending on how you drive, haha.

What would you recommend others try or do when they visit?

I always suggest that visitors check out our amazing small businesses. From the locally owned boutiques, restaurants and the mom and pop retail establishments. The small businesses, to me, offer the variety and hometown appeal that you just can't get in the big city. They are also made up of community members who give so much back to our amazing community, you would be hard pressed to get the large chains to give back like our community of mom and pop businesses do.

Brad &Kelly

O H 18 SPOTLIGHT

We believe we have some of the best people leading the way for Chickasha. With each Oh18 Spotlight, we hope to shed light on the many ways these special people are impacting our small town in a big way.

Tell us a little about yourself and where you started out

Kelly and I both grew up in Buffalo, a small town in northwest Oklahoma, where we learned the value of community, service, and strong relationships.

I attended Central State University (now UCO) and earned a bachelor's degree in business finance. My career began in the oil and gas industry, but when the industry took a downturn in the 1980s, I transitioned into banking. That unexpected shift led to a 33-year career as a community banker in both Oklahoma and Texas.

Kelly earned her bachelor's degree in education from SWOSU and a master’s degree from Tarleton State. She spent 31 years in Texas as a teacher and school administrator.

also north of the Red River. I was ready for a new challenge beyond banking and eager to explore a different business venture.

Our paths crossed again later in life in Texas, where we reconnected, married, and spent 20 years in Mineral Wells, TX pursuing our careers, building lasting friendships, and staying actively involved in our communities.

Why did you choose to open a Chicken Express?

We began praying earnestly about making such a big transition—leaving established careers, securing financing, and finding a way to relocate to Oklahoma. But even when the plan seemed overwhelming, God proved bigger. What started as careful planning and prayer quickly turned into reality, and in record time, we found ourselves not just pursuing one Chicken Express franchise but two—Chickasha and Duncan And then in 2019 we added a third store in Lawton.

Why did you choose to start a restaurant in Chickasha?

We chose Chickasha because of its convenient location, offering easy access to Oklahoma City while allowing us to prioritize family time. But in many ways, Chickasha chose us.

One of the members of my bank board was the founder of Chicken Express, and through our many conversations, the idea of franchising always intrigued me. I had seen firsthand the success of several friends who owned Chicken Express franchises, and every time we visited Oklahoma, I felt there were strong opportunities for the brand in various locations across the state.

Our journey began at a February 2017 Chamber Banquet, just barely 30 days into becoming Chicken Express franchisees. That evening, we were overwhelmed by the warmth and hospitality of the community. People welcomed us with open arms, offered support, and showed genuine excitement about our new venture. It was unlike anything we expected.

The timing to seriously pursue a franchise aligned perfectly. Kelly was eligible for Texas teacher retirement, our children and, most importantly, our grandchildren were in Oklahoma, and our aging parents were

Our connection deepened when we visited First Baptist Church—where we were embraced so fully that we never felt the need to visit anywhere else. The kindness of this community continued as people invited us to join local organizations, took us to lunch, and encouraged us to get involved in the Chamber. Through these experiences, we didn’t just open a restaurant—we found a home and a community. The people of Chickasha seemed to be excited about their

future. Chickasha captured our hearts, and we couldn’t imagine a better place to grow our business and be part of a community that truly cares.

What has been your favorite part about owning Chicken Express?

Our favorite part of owning Chicken Express has always been the opportunity to mentor and support our employees— especially those experiencing their very first job. We consider it both an honor and a great responsibility to help young people develop essential life and workplace skills. It's incredibly rewarding to watch a new employee gain confidence—learning to make eye contact, interact with customers with kindness and a smile, and understand the value of teamwork. Seeing them grow not just in their job but as individuals is one of the most fulfilling aspects of what we do.

learning a new industry while supporting our parents through their final days was incredibly difficult. Yet, through it all, we saw God’s plan unfolding. The whirlwind of events that led us back to Oklahoma wasn’t just about business—it was about being where we were needed most. That realization became a powerful part of our journey and testimony.

One of our core company values is opportunity. We believe in providing a workplace where people can learn, grow, and build a foundation for their future success. Whether our employees stay with us long-term or move on to other careers, we take pride in knowing we've played a role in their professional and personal development.

Professionally, the challenges of the pandemic were beyond anything we could have imagined. Keeping our employees working and healthy while navigating constant uncertainty weighed heavily on us. We scrambled to find supplies, reinvented procedures on the fly, and embraced flexibility like never before. It was a relentless test of endurance, adaptability, and faith—one that reshaped us as business owners and leaders.

What has been the most difficult part?

Owning a small business is a constant challenge—especially in the quick-service industry, where no two days are ever the same. But the most difficult part of our journey has been navigating personal loss and unexpected hardships while managing a new business.

In our first year, we faced the devastating loss of my mom and Kelly’s dad, just six months apart. Balancing the demands of

What is the most surprising thing you've learned since opening?

One of the most surprising things we've learned since opening is just how much we could grow—both personally and professionally—by taking this leap of faith. Many friends and family were shocked that we chose to leave behind established careers to venture into an entirely new industry with little prior experience. But for us, that challenge has been one of the greatest surprises and blessings of this journey.

We’ve learned how to work together as business partners, navigate the ups and downs of running a small business, and continuously adapt to improve. Every day brings new lessons, and despite the challenges, we truly love this adventure.

Perhaps the most unexpected and rewarding surprise has been having

our adult children join us in this business. Watching them learn alongside us, contribute to our shared vision, and become part of something we’ve built together has been an incredible experience—one that makes this journey even more meaningful.

If you could accomplish anything in the next 5 years with your business, what would it be?

Over the next five years, our greatest goal is to successfully transition our family into the business while building a legacy of community involvement and service. The values we first learned growing up in the small town of Buffalo, Oklahoma—hard work, community, and integrity— have been the foundation of our business, and we want to ensure those same principles continue to shape its future.

We hope to strengthen our reputation as a business that not only serves great food but also serves its community. We want Chicken Express to be known as a place where employees feel valued, where customers receive excellent service and experience kindness, and where giving back is part of our daily mission. Ultimately, we’d like our success to be measured in the positive impact we leave on the people and communities we serve.

LOCAL FLAVOR MIX UP

A Meal made from the Heart of the Community

There’s something special about a meal made with ingredients and dishes from your own community. It’s not just about great food— it’s about supporting local businesses and celebrating the flavors of home.

For our meal, we started with a simple yet delicious dip, paired with fresh carrots and crispy chips from a local shop. Then, we brought in a perfectly cooked steak from a trusted local meat market, complemented by sides from a favorite neighborhood eatery. To round it out, we added flavorful chicken from a well-loved restaurant and served everything on dishes found at a local boutique.

The result? A meal that’s not only satisfying but also tells a story of local craftsmanship, fresh ingredients, and community support. Next time you’re planning dinner, think beyond just one stop—mix and match from different local spots to create something truly special.

Spring & Summer Maintenance Tips with Todd's Muffler & Auto Repair

As the chill of winter fades and spring begins to bloom, it's time to shift gears—literally—and make sure your vehicle is ready for the road ahead.

Spring Maintenance Musts

Winter roads can take a toll on your vehicle and spring is the perfect time to address any wear and tear. Here are a few key services to consider:

• Tire Inspection & Alignment Cold temperatures and rough road conditions can lead to uneven tire wear and misalignment. Proper alignment ensures better handling and extends the life of your tires.

• Brake Check

Worn-out brakes are a safety hazard, especially with wet spring roads. Have your brakes inspected and serviced if needed.

Potholes and winter roads can damage your suspension. A quick checkup can prevent future costly repairs.

• Custom Exhaust & Engine Work

Need a performance upgrade or have an aging engine? Whether you need a simple repair or a complete engine replacement, this shop has you covered.

Beat the Heat: Summer Prep

Before the summer sun cranks up the heat, make sure your vehicle’s cooling systems are in peak condition:

• Air Conditioning Service

Whether your car uses traditional refrigerant or the new Freon, keeping your A/C system properly charged and maintained ensures a comfortable ride in the summer heat.

• Cooling System Check

Overheating is a common issue in hot weather. A thorough inspection of your radiator, coolant levels and hoses can prevent breakdowns.

• Transmission & Transfer Case Repairs

Smooth shifting is essential for long drives. If you’ve noticed hesitation or slipping gears, now’s the time to have it looked at.

Hit the Road with Confidence

A well-maintained car means peace of mind when traveling. Whether you need a full inspection or a specific repair, trust the experts who have been keeping local vehicles running smoothly for over four decades.

Schedule a visit today, and get ready to enjoy the open road with confidence this spring and summer!

THE HISTORY OF CHICKASHA'S

Fire Department

Chickasha's Fire Department was in existence prior to Oklahoma becoming a state. Originally, the crew used a team of white horses to pull their fire apparatus. Pictures of the horses date back to 1900. It wasn't until around the 1920s that the department started using vehicles.

Chickasha was known for hosting the 16th annual Oklahoma Firemens Association where all centrally located fireman participated in.

At one point in the 1980s, Chickasha considered hiring a private firm to take over all firefighting needs. If hired, this

would have been the first time a private firm would have taken over a department in Oklahoma. However, this did not end up taking place.

Currently, Chickasha's Fire Department has two locations, one on each side of town covering over 600 square miles. There are 36 career firefighter/emergency medical technicians and two civilian personnel that staff Chickasha. All fire personnel are cross-trained as emergency medical technicians and paramedics. These crews are known to run up to 4,000 service calls a year. The majority of these calls are for emergency medical services.

« Main Photo: Chickasha Fire Department featuring the station and apparatus from 1910; May 1,1914; and Oct. 5, 1934 at 8 a.m.

The 1910 photo shows that the white horses that were the first horses in the barn that were used to pull the wagons.
