News and Information
March 10, 2010:
A .pdf
document has been added under "Hunter Caravans" consisting of all
Derby winners from 1966-2008. Also, it seems as if the Oklahoma winter
is ending, which means, the Spring! Spring brings showers, flowers, song
birds, Easter, and Rattlesnake Hunting. March 1st marked the first day
of "rattlesnake season." However, the weather is just now getting nice
enough to allow rattlers to migrate from their winter dens to bathe in
the warm sunlight. Good luck to any early hunters, and BE SAFE!
Also, we have created a page
for the Bite-a-Snake Cafe'. The link to the page can be found on the
left navigation bar.
March 7, 2010:
Pictures have been added to the
Safari Bus Tour, Derby Princess, About Us, Square Dancing, and Longest
Snake pages. Also, a youtube video featuring the band has been added to
the Live Concert Page. In addition, the Derby Princess page features
hyperlinks to past derby princesses. Currently, only the 2008 and 2009
princesses have been added to the database. Hopefully, we will be able
to at least feature a biography of each past derby winner.
The onset of March marks what we
call the "Derby" Season. Therefore, we will have weekly meetings in
order to finalize all necessary business before the Derby. Also, this
year's tabloids are almost ready for disbursement. The Derby is only two
months away!

The Rick Babek
Band
This year, the Rick Babek Band
will play live at the Mangum Rattlesnake Derby. Band information can be
found by either clicking the above photo or clicking "Live Concert" on
the left navigation bar.
February 27, 2010:
The 45th Annual Mangum Rattlesnake
Derby is only two months away! We have just finished a massive site
overhaul. Hopefully, this new layout will be more user friendly than the
previous layout.
At the top of the page, the vendor
information link has useful information for prospective vendors.
Eventually, all necessary documents will be found on the vendor
information page. Currently, a list of the rules governing the flea
market, a map of the flea market, and a schedule of events is posted.
More documents will be added in the near future.
I would like to direct your
attention to the Other Important Links section. There, you will find
useful links about Mangum, including Mangum's newspaper. The newspaper
would be a useful tool to use to get to know the people of Mangum, as
well as Mangum itself.
I encourage anyone interested in
the Mangum Rattlesnake Derby to contact us. Our contact information can
be found at the top of the page or you can click on Leave a Comment. I
will try to answer your comments as quickly as I can.
Thank you for visiting our site
and hopefully we will see you in April! |
