Guymon February Events Include Master Gardener Training, Library StoryTime, Auctions

Guymon’s community calendar filled out in February with a mix of volunteer training, children’s programming and several chamber-backed fundraisers and civic meetings that matter for local education, social connection and economic support.

The City of Guymon listed a Master Gardener Volunteer Training Program that began Feb. 2. The multi-session course, as posted on the city events calendar, covers botany, soils, plant care, pests and more; the entry in the calendar cuts off at “local v,” leaving some details incomplete. City Hall’s events office is at 424 N Main Street and can be reached at (580) 338-3396 for complete schedules, registration and fee information. Training in plant care and soils can build local capacity for home and community gardening, with implications for food access, outdoor safety and neighborhood green space stewardship.

Family and early-childhood offerings at the Guymon Public Library continued to provide free programs and resources. StoryTime has been held every Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. since October 2025, and the library urges families to participate. “Welcome to the Kids’ Corner! We have programs, events, and activities all year long!” the library site says, and it invites patrons to “Stop by and say hello to our Children’s Librarian, Daisy Hernandez! She’s been planning lots of fun stuff for your kiddos!” The library’s hours are Monday–Thursday 9:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Friday 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Saturday 9:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.; phone (580) 338-7330 and email guymonpublib@guymonok.org. The page also notes funding support from The Oklahoma Department of Libraries and The Institute of Museum And Library Services.

Area civic and fundraising events were concentrated in the first three weeks of February. Eggs & Issues was scheduled for Feb. 6, followed by Fair Board elections and the OPSU Top Hand Auction on Feb. 7. Oakes of Mamre held a Souper Bowl Lunch on Feb. 8. A flagship Chamber event, listed as Dinner, Dance & Draw Down on Feb. 14, “starts at 6:00 PM and promises a night of fun, food, and high stakes,” with tickets priced at $100 per person that include two prime rib meals and one entry into a $10,000 Cash Draw Down. “Attendees will enjoy live music for dancing, courtesy of the Jimmy Lee Jordan Band, plus additional entertainment like a chip draw and gun draw,” the community newsletter reported, and the Guymon Chamber “is strongly encouraging community members to secure their tickets soon, noting they are limited.” The chamber calendar also shows Main Street Guymon’s banquet on Feb. 17, PSC Lunch & Learn on Feb. 19, Panhandle Career Connections at OPSU on Feb. 25 and Rotary Bingo Night on Feb. 26. The chamber’s offices are listed at 122 NW 4th in Guymon.

Public meeting schedules remain busy through the month, including a Library Board meeting at 4:00 p.m. on Feb. 22 and recurring county commissioner sessions throughout February. Note that several calendar excerpts contained truncated language and a calendar artifact showing Feb. 29; 2026 is not a leap year, so check directly with event hosts for correct dates and times.

For households, the month’s programming matters beyond entertainment. Library StoryTime and kids’ resources support early literacy and social connection, while Master Gardener training can expand community resilience around food and green spaces. Ticketed fundraisers underwrite civic programming and local institutions, but organizers should ensure events are accessible and affordable to avoid excluding lower-income residents.

Expect more specifics and possible corrections as organizers clarify truncated listings and finalize ticketing, venue and registration information.
