A quick bite before the fun started! 🍽️

Our Newcastle Parks & Recreation crew spends several hours getting everything ready before an event, and we don’t always have a chance to get away and grab something to eat.

The Newcastle Parks & Recreation staff would like to thank the Newcastle OK Chamber, Pioneer Telephone Coop - Newcastle, OEC Fiber, and Community Bank - Linda Eyler for feeding our crew before the event!

We’re grateful to have community partners who think of our crew and help take care of us while we’re getting everything ready. Thank you! 💙
