Perryton residents got treated to a special program by Amarillo’s Wild West Wildlife Rehabilitation Center at the Museum of the Plains. Volunteers at the center spoke to a roomful of kids, parents, and animal lovers about the work the center does caring for injured animals before releasing them back into the wild. They also brought a number of tame ambassador animals, including an opossum, a skunk, a Texas tortoise, and a corn snake.

The family of Cynthia Symons turned out for the annual Perryton-Ochiltree Chamber of Commerce Banquet to congratulate her after being named the Citizen of the Year. Pictured are, from left, Melanie Symons Allen, Cynthia Symons, Kerry Symons, and Alyssa Symons Seay.
