Mac-n-Cheese, a favorite of most kids and many adults, and a staple side dish on most southern cooking menus, has increased in popularity nation wide. Often, one of the first things kids learn to cook is boxed macaroni and cheese. Easy, salty and addictive. In our last session of Go Odessa Summer Recreation cooking class, we made Macaroni and Cheese. The younger group used a boxed mix with macaroni cooked and chilled ahead of time, so only low-heat, stove-top cooking was...

To the Editor: I am writing as a member of the Odessa Historical Society, asking for your help. Our local museum began with much volunteer help many years ago, just as it continues to run today. It has weathered a devastating fire and was rebuilt to be what it is today. We have two main fundraisers per year in which we send postcards to members of the community. One is for the yearly dues. The other is for community baked goods or monetary donations for the annual Deutschesfest Bake Sale. I consider one of the fundraisers...

The annual potluck dinner, with burgers and hot dogs supplied by the Odessa Community Ministerial Association, followed by softball, came close to being rained out, but turned out pleasantly enough, with no one getting wet. Participants and spectators alike appeared to enjoy themselves, especially after it became obvious that the dark, threatening rain cloud was moving away from Odessa, rather than toward it. If you have not participated up to now, you have been missing a...
At Monday evening’s meeting of the Odessa Town Council, Town Marshal Brent Dell reported that K-9 officer Sasha had recently undergone additional and more thorough health testing and was found to have issues with her hips and spinal discs, as well as an incipient tooth abscess, that have rendered her unable to serve as a local drug dog. She will be returned to her former handler at the organization that donated her to the Odessa Town Marshal’s Office. That organization already has lined up two suitable homes in which she can...
Horseshoe pitching Kathy Ratkowski, the sole surviving member of the Odessa Horseshoes Club, tells The Record that, unless a miracle happens, there will be no horseshoes event during Deutschesfest this year. There is one state-sanctioned tournament left on the statewide schedule to be held here locally sometime after Fest, but that will likely be the end of horseshoes in Odessa unless local people suddenly develop an overwhelming interest in the sport and volunteer to help maintain the horseshoe pits and participate in...
