Kyra Hornbuckle, Idabel High Class of 2018, won the MVP of the All-Star game at the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians World Series All-Star Stickball Game. She played in the World Series for Tushkahomma Ohoyo and was selected to the All-Star Game a couple of weeks ago. The other day she made the trip back to Mississippi just for the All-Star game. She apparently played a great game because she won MVP. When they called her name they said "Tyra........Hornbuckle". She stayed knelt because she heard Tyra, then she heard Hornbuckle, then she said, "That's me!" Kyra is a 2021 graduate of the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma (USAO) in Checotah. Her degree is in Biology. She currently works as an archaeological technician for the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma Historic Preservation Department. While at Idabel, Kyra ran cross country and played basketball for the Warriors. Congratulations Kyra, Warrior Nation is proud of you!

This will be the last Girl Talk event of the summer and will be held at the Broken Bow Public Library. The topics that the young ladies discuss will vary. If they have any questions on an experience they may have had and how to approach it or just about anything they'd like to talk about. The way they do this process is they write down the topic or specific experience on a notecard and it's placed in a jar When it comes time for the event to start the panel, which are people from the community like teachers, school counselors, firefighters, law enforcement officers, and medical professionals who are all women, will answer the question they may have on the topic that was pulled from the jar. GTRT do encourage the young ladies to show up at 10AM so they can mingle with the other girls from 10AM to 11AM. Refreshments are provided, and gifts are given out when their ticket number is called when they take breaks. Girl Talk Real Talk starts from 11AM and lasts until 1PM.
