We are now into week 5 of the OSSAA baseball season and we are also in the thick of tournament/festivals season. There are several events on the docket for this week, but as you may be aware, the weather isn’t looking too favorable to get them played (or at least all of them played).

All of the teams playing are from 6A except for Blue Valley North who is from Kansas.

This festival is also called the Gladys Winters Festival in honor of longtime Enid resident Gladys Winters.

According to davidallenballpark.com, Gladys Winters was a longtime Enid educator and baseball fan.

Winters, who died in 1999, probably saw more baseball games than anyone else at Phillips-Failing Field, following the Enid Plainsmen, Phillips Haymakers, and Enid American Legion team. She had long been proclaimed as Enid’s No. 1 baseball fan.

Gladys Winters grew up in Enid as an African American during segregation, but friends told her how she helped bridge the gap between races. She was a career educator and elementary school counselor. She was active with the Booker T. Washington Community Center, Enid Inter-Racial Women’s Council, and the Enid YWCA.

Games will be played at both the David Allen Ballpark in downtown Enid as well as Edmond Santa Fe, Deer Creek, and Edmond Memorial.
