What Kind of Local News Does Sulphur Times Democrat Cover?

Updated

Sulphur Times Democrat (sulphurtimes.com) is a local news site for the Sulphur, Oklahoma area, and its coverage centers on community notices, school sports, obituaries, weather, and a daily e-edition. If you want Sulphur-area happenings rather than national headlines, this is the type of site to check; the sections below show what you'll actually find there.

Community Events and Health Notices

The homepage highlights local service announcements alongside its news. A current example is "Free Flu Shots Offered At Drive-Thru Event Nov. 6," listed with an upload date of 10/28/2026. Items like this are practical community information — event dates, locations, and who is offering the service — rather than reported features.

School and Sports Coverage

Sports is the heaviest category on the page, with separate "Sports" and "View more" blocks. Coverage focuses on local school teams:

  • Cross country: "CC Teams End Historic Run With 3rd At State," "Sulphur Cross Country Teams Make History With Regional Championships," "SHS Cross Country Teams Each Win 2nd In ECU Meet"
  • Football: "Dogs Deliver Dominating Blow In 55-0 Rout Of Kingston," "Dogs Take Down Another #1 Team In 28-6 Defensive Gem Over Davis," "Bulldogs Open Season On Friday"
  • Other school sports: "Lady Bulldogs Split Pair, Rout Ardmore After Tough Loss To Roff," "First Practice In New Gym"

The pattern is game results, meet placements, and season milestones for Sulphur High School teams.

Obituaries

The site maintains an obituaries section with individual entries and a "View more" link. Recent listings include Frances Marie Diacon, Christi Jean Hunter, Bobby Joe Grinstead, Alvin (Sonny) Harrison, Sharon Van Fennell, and Laura Lee Holman, each linking to a full obituary.

Weather and e-Edition

A weather widget shows current conditions for Sulphur — for example, temperature, pressure, and wind speed — with a "Click to see more" option. The page also offers "Today's e-Edition," a digital version of the printed paper.

Other Local News

General news items round out the page, such as "Daylight Saving Time Ends Sunday; Oklahoma's Future Clock Changes Uncertain" and "Hospital's Jeremy Jones Named Rural Health Leader Of The Year." These mix local institutional news with regional topics that affect Sulphur readers.
