The TSET Healthy Living Program is working alongside the Purcell Police Department, the City of Purcell, and Purcell Public Schools to host the 2nd Annual Play Streets Events! The last Play Streets took place pre-covid and many of our community members have been asking for a return of the event.

For those of you who are not familiar with Play Streets, they will shut down part of the drive on the south end of their building (919 N. 9th Ave-where the Library/School/Health Department is located) and open the area up for children to come play. We are looking for volunteers like yourself to help with the event! They need a variety of activities, water, and of course---- just you as volunteers! Last time, some of our volunteers brought SWAG for the kids as well. The kids loved the frog togs-those were a hit!

TSET will bring items for sack races, and they have a few basketballs, soccer balls, kick balls. They will also have sunglasses and jump ropes to give-a-way.

Other items they are looking for:
Hula hoop
Chalk
Bubbles
Rubber Bases (for Kickball)
Sticky Paddles
Water
And more!

And they could always use more:
Basketballs
Footballs
Jump Ropes

Purcell Tourism Committee Looking To Fill Open Position

As of May, 2022 the Purcell Tourism Committee has collected $102,471.87 from the 5% lodging tax that went into effect in July of 2021. The lodging tax is collected from overnight visitors to Purcell’s hotels, motels, RV parks, and Airbnb’s.

The seven-member committee is working to consider the best ways to utilize lodging tax revenues to promote tourism opportunities and venues in the city. In May 2022, the committee voted to add billboards on north and south bound I-35 to draw more visitors off the interstate and into Purcell. The advertising campaign will promote the city’s lodging providers, restaurants, site-seeing hotspots, and shopping opportunities.
Currently the committee is a member short and is looking for someone to fill the position of Citizen At Large. The new member should be active in our community, eager to help promote our city, and can attend meetings regularly. Meetings are held on the second Tuesday of every month at 5:15pm at the City Hall Community Room, unless otherwise posted.

The committee is also looking to promote upcoming events in Purcell. Event coordinators looking for financial assistance for their event can submit an application for review.
If you wish to apply for financial assistance, or would like for information about the Citizen At Large position, you can email info@destinationpurcell.com or by visiting www.cityofpurcell.com/313/destinationpurcell and www.theheartofok.com/destination-purcell
