lawton closings

Yesterday I was talking with some friends, reminiscing about places that are no longer open in Lawton, Fort Sill. We all started naming off businesses and restaurants that we loved and would go to all the time, but sadly are no longer with us.

Sadly another business in Lawton, Fort Sill is closing. The Sara Lee Bread Store located at 2701 S.W. Lee Blvd is closing it's doors for good. While there isn't a whole lot of details on the closing, we're pretty sure the COVID-19 pandemic and shutdowns had a lot to do with it. We've lost count as far as how many businesses here in town have had to shut their doors permanently due to the virus.

Remain calm, all's well, there's certainly no need to panic. Yes, the Chick-fil-A on Cache road has closed temporarily due to COVID-19 exposure, but will re-open soon. Maybe as soon as next week, or the week after. We wish all involved and the entire staff at Chick-fil-A on Cache all the best and a speedy return!

An official statement hasn't been made yet, but we're hearing that the Kay Jewelers store at the Central Mall in Lawton will be closing. It's been shut down for months now when the COVID-19 pandemic started and has remained closed ever since. Here at the office we have several people who have made recent purchases, have jewelry on lay-away, items that are currently being cleaned or repaired. They've shared with us that Kay will be closing.

Fort Sill will have delayed opening for the next few days. The AAFES Exchange at the intersection of Sheridan Road and Mow-Way Road will remain open 24/7. (More details follow)
