There is a new place in town to shop for your children. Heidi and Jeremy Wood have opened Prineville Kids Stop, located inside the Sears store in the Ochoco Plaza. Heidi and Jeremy took over the Sears store in July and made the decision that Prineville needed a local place to shop for their children. They offer newborn, infant, toddler, girls 4-16, and boys 4–18. They are also the Crook County Cowboys and Cowgirls apparel fan headquarters, offering all sizes, large selection, and great prices to show your CC athletes that you support them. They also carry Sketchers shoes and more. They can be reached at 541-447-5411
