He may have performed at Carnegie Hall and even on the White House lawn, but at heart, Steve Lungrin is an Ogallala kid.
From Prairie View Elementary and West 5th to Ogallala Middle School, across from the old gym, Steve’s roots run deep. His dad’s stores, Mr. Shop and Lungrin’s Family Wardrobe, were fixtures on Spruce Street. Summers were spent at North Park watching softball at the Dugout concession stand, cheering on every OHS team, and listening to games on KOGA, where his dad called play by play alongside Jim Thalken.
Now this hometown talent returns to Ogallala as an internationally known singer-songwriter and performer for the Ogallala Regional Arts Council 2025/26 Season.
Join us Sunday, February 22 at 4:00 PM at Willow and Oak Events for an unforgettable afternoon featuring favorites from Billy Joel and Elton John, plus Broadway standouts. Doors open at 3:30. Tickets available at the door.
Come celebrate a hometown story that started right here and continues to shine on stages around the world!

OHS creativity met first-grade imagination in the sweetest way! OHS 11th and 12th-grade Creative Writing students wrapped up their original and fractured fairy tales and then headed to Mrs. Elliott’s 1st-grade classroom to share their stories. From brave heroes to unexpected plot twists, our youngest listeners were all in.
There is something special about big kids reading to little kids, and this was a perfect example of it. 📚✨
