>    1. Main Street Guymon - The Guymon Fiesta is annual event, first begun
>    25 years ago by the City of Guymon and picked up by Main Street Guymon six
>    years ago at the request of the City. It is a time to learn about and
>    celebrate the Hispanic population in our community, the majority population
>    at this time during National Hispanic Heritage Month.
>    2. Stockyards City Main Street  -- The Stockyards Stampede event is a
>    celebration of the western and agricultural heritage of the area.  The
>    grant request is specifically to support the Main Stage entertainment and
>    infrastructure.
>    3. Newkirk Main Street - Charlie Adams Day celebrates Newkirk’s Native
>    American & pioneer heritage by utilizing a mix of current & historic
>    elements. BBQ & Dutch oven cooking demonstrations & period historical
>    entertainment are used to highlight our roots. Current entertainment by
>    local artists, is used as a celebration of our tenacity. Named for an early
>    pharmacist, we use his life and times to base our event in history.
>    4. El Reno Main Street - We are bringing music to "The Rock District"
>    in downtown El Reno.  El Reno Main Street goal is to bring the community
>    together and to share different genre's of music (Country, Blues, Rock,
>    Hispanic), while encouraging the youth to share their talents as well.
>    5. Main Street Enid (2015) - The FLY Film Festival celebrates the art
>    of filmmaking and inspires creativity by providing learning opportunities
>    and showcasing Films Like Yours in downtown Enid, Oklahoma.
