Casady School Head of School Nathan Sheldon with Grace and Joyce Hua. The Hua family donated 200 masks for the seniors and faculty for graduation on Saturday. The graduates will be able to wear them to allow for the traditional tossing of the caps in front of the Chapel.
For many, graduation goes on! By Rose Lane Editor Many 2020 high school seniors are still having the opportunity to graduate in a tradition setting. Fridayland’s larger public schools — including Deer Creek, John Marshall, Harding Fine Arts Academy and Putnam City North — hosted virtual ceremonies and online tributes to their graduates. Crossings Christian School had graduation as normal in May. Others are moving forward with ceremonies yet this summer.
Casady’s 2020 seniors will graduate on Saturday around the lake as per tradition. Heritage Hall’s graduation is set for June 25 on the school’s football field. On Tuesday, Bishop McGuinness will host its graduation ceremony beginning at 7:30 p.m. in Pribil Stadium. Mount St. Mary’s ceremony will be on July 7. And, Harding Charter Prep’s graduation will be at City Council Baptist Church in Bethany on July 8. “I believe the kids need that time to shine,” HCP Principal Steven Stefanick said.

We are the proud owners of a raspberry plant I
was president two years ago of Weeders and Seeders Garden Club. That job title obviously has no qualifications. Three years ago, buying a container labeled “blackberry” at a garden store on half-price sale, we planted it in our yard. Ever since we’ve been trying to harvest our berry crop, but the birds always beat us to them just as they turn red and we’re
waiting for ripening into black. Husband Jerry has a dandy little app on his phone that identifies plant life and rationally there was no reason for me to ask him to look up our plant, but I did. He took a photo of it budded out this year. It seems the RED that it turns is not a mistake, as it never was going to turn into a blackberry. We have a raspberry plant. I feel so foolish. Furthering the gardening prowess over here are the tomatoes. Late night perusing of

the Internet, when he should have been watching porn, husband Jerry was on tomato-growing sites. Now get this: he planted his tomato plants with an egg at their base – under the ground. No, not shells, a whole intact egg. Somewhere on the Internet someone is pounding the floor laughing that someone would actually do this, as was Sarah Branscum when we told her. Pretty Sara was out walking and we invited her for a glass of wine and to enlist her expertise in gardening, as she is a professional. As there are six plants, if you walk by my garden and there are no tomatoes, but half a dozen chicks peeking out of the
ground, realize I had no hand in this. And Mother Nature has the vapors. • How random is this? With my name as a salutation in my computer’s inbox, I got a job offer. I could drive a MOO MOO Ice Cream truck for $20 an hour and keep the tips. Only catch, I’d have to move to Iowa. With the personal blubber I’ve added to myself during this shut-in, if the job hadn’t required a move, I would have taken it just for the opportunity to gobble up the leftovers. Medical professionals suggest that senior people should carry some extra weight so they have the stamina to ward off illness. I’m going with that.

Live music is set to return to Scissortail Park Live music is set to return to Scis‐ sortail Park on Friday, June 19. Local, regional, and national artists and musi‐ cians will take the stage on select Fri‐ day evenings for Live from the Lawn beginning June 19. Concerts are held on the Love’s Travel Stops Stage & Great Lawn. Scissortail Park began as a dream to build a world‐class destination unlike any other centered around health, wellness, a connection to nature, and entertainment for all citizens. The grand opening concert on September 27, 2019 featuring Kings of Leon was nothing short of spectacular welcom‐ ing over 28,000 guests to what is now officially Oklahoma City’s largest live music event. As the city moves into the next phases of re‐opening, Scissortail
Park is excited to play a role in the return of live music offering a venue where the community can come together while staying safely apart. The debut concert in the series fea‐ tures several of the artists who per‐ formed on Scissortail Streams, the 10‐ episode online streaming series which showcased local musicians performing in various venues around the Park dur‐ ing March, April and May. Find all 10 episodes online on Scissortail Streams Playlist on YouTube. There are 11+ artists lined‐up for the June 19 “Okie All Stars” live con‐ cert. “We are ready and excited to pres‐ ent ‘Live from the Lawn’ concerts at Scissortail Park. With plenty of beauti‐ ful open green space to social distance,
our Love’s Travel Stops Stage and Great Lawn will be the place to be to enjoy and support local and regional talent representing diverse musical genres,” said Maureen Heffernan, CEO of Scissortail Park Foundation. “Come out and enjoy your park and great music this summer.” Graham Colton who is helping to produce the concert series added, “Scissortail is a symbol of our city’s growth and perseverance. Especially given these uncertain times, I’m super excited to be a part of this special series that will provide a perfect atmosphere to once again enjoy live music.” Guests are encouraged to bring pic‐ nics, blankets, and lawn chairs to enjoy an evening of quality music in the Park.
In addition, and in support of the local food industry, Scissortail Park will offer guests the chance to purchase a Sound Bites Package that includes food, beverages and a reserved spot of the lawn. During each concert, a different Oklahoma City restaurant, food truck, or caterer will offer a boxed meal and beverages to pick up before the con‐ certs. A new Sound Bites Package will be announced in advance, along with available food items for pre‐purchase before each concert. “While all concerts are free,” Heffer‐ nan added, “you can support the Scis‐ sortail Park Foundation by making an online donation to the foundation or become a concert sponsor.

Grateful to work for the King By Walker Moore The Baptist Messenger Since I started preaching and teaching 47 years ago, I have never lacked for a place to use my spiritual gifts. Only in the latter half of my life has God allowed me to add teaching through the written word. But I have always preferred the speaking ministry over writing. I have told you many times that I am not a writer. If you want to read some good writing, you should read Matthew, Mark, Luke or John. Now, those guys could write. My speaking schedule is usually booked a year or two ahead. When the pandemic hit, my engagements began to drop one by one. I was supposed to be teaching in Mexico, Guatemala and across the U.S. I make my living by preaching and teaching, and for the last nine weeks, I have experienced what most of you have as well. So I looked around to see what God had in mind. God opened the doors for me to serve at Catoosa, First. The pastor happens to be my son Caleb and the Yada Hoodies attend this church. On several occasions, I had noticed that some of the facilities needed a little touch-up. With extra time on my hands, I asked Caleb and the elders if I could bring my friend Roger Larkey, an ace carpenter who recently retired, to check out the church. Roger and I walked into the empty building to see the needs. Room by room, we discovered outlets to rewire, drywall to patch, baseboards to reattach, walls and
ceilings to paint, bathrooms and floors to repair, lights to install and siding to hang. Seven weeks later, we still have a few things to touch up. But it has not been all work; we had some fun along the way. While Roger was installing a new ceiling in the entryway, he embedded a toy Power Ranger. This happened to be the Red Ranger, Jason, the original leader who had a big heart to serve others. Can you imagine when the next building renovation takes place and they pull down the ceiling to discover this toy? Our prayer is that it will become a collector’s item and the church will get a nice sum of money. This renovation has required me to use muscles I didn’t know even existed. Scraping, sanding, painting, climbing on roofs, installing siding and fixing water leaks have taught me some new skills. Roger and I would remind each other that we were “working for the Lord” (Col. 3:23b). During this season of not going out to speak, God gave me a new way to serve Him. The days of quarantine have gone by quickly and the satisfaction of helping this growing congregation has blessed me. Now God has opened still more doors for me to serve Him. This week alone, I have built a fence, installed a new roof on a back porch, helped load a trailer so a brother could move and built a ramp for a lady who recently had a leg amputated. As she took her first journey down the ramp, she smiled from ear to ear and told us,
“I got my freedom back!” There is great joy in doing the big things. God has allowed me to speak to tens of thousands at one setting and He has allowed me to build a ramp for one woman. Which brought me the greatest joy? It’s a tie. It isn’t about what I do, but for whom I do it. Two verses have run through my mind these last few months. One is Matthew 5:41: “If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles.” Roger and I could have let many things slide, but each time, we went the extra mile to make sure we did the task correctly. We could get by with two coats of paint, but we knew three coats would look much nicer. You must do a good job when the building inspector is Jesus Christ himself. His standards are high. Whether crafting a sermon or running a caulk line, you must approach each with the same intensity. With every task, I want to do such a good job that I will one day hear those famous words, “Well done, good and faithful servant” (Matt. 5:25:21b). The second verse that kept running through my mind involved my joy in serving. God gives great joy when He allows you to touch the multitudes, and He grants the same joy when He allows you to touch the least of these. The King will reply, “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” (Matt. 25:40). No matter what I do, I am grateful to work for the King.

E'RE MOVING. I blame my daughter. She's only five months old but she has somehow acquired, at a conservative estimate, 250 million toys. Every morning, there seem to be more of them. I suspect they're having some kind of battery-powered sex while we sleep. These toys make a lot of noise. In my youth, toys were passive lumps of wood or metal that were silent unless you whacked your brother on the head with them. But today's toys contain computer chips, so they can move and talk; this stimu-
lates the mind of your child. Notice I say “your child.” MY child just wants to eat the toys. For example, she has an electronic Pooh bear who moves his head and says things like, “Would you like to play with me?” This stimulates my daughter to try to put Pooh's head into her mouth. Any day now, Pooh will hold up his paws and scream, “NOOOO!” But that will not stop my daughter. She is the Great White Shark of babies. But my point is this: We have a smallish house, and we work at home, and it's hard to concentrate when the

The World According to D AV E BA R RY floor is covered with toys that are constantly trying to strike up conversations. So I called our Realtor and said: “We need to move.” Now a truly compassionate Realtor, upon hearing these words, would have shot me in the head. Instead, our Realtor found us a larger house. We liked it immediately, although it needed a Little Work. “It just needs some paint,” I told my wife. I can look at a house and know exactly what it needs, because in fifth and sixth grades, I took Wood Shop. So we had a Paint Guy look at the house. He told us - and we knew he was an expert, because he had a clipboard - that before he could paint it, it needed some carpentry work. So we had a Carpentry Guy look at the house. He also had a clipboard.
“You see this?” he asked me, poking at a board. From my perspective, it looked no different from all the other boards in the house. From my perspective, the entire HOUSE is random boards. But the Carpentry Guy was looking at this board with the facial expression of a man stuck in an elevator with the national leadership of the Big Flatulent Persons Support Group. “When we take this board off,” he said, ominously, “there's no telling WHAT we're gonna find.” I wanted to say, “So let's not take it off!” But I didn't want him to think that I was not a manly masculine Wood Shop graduate. The Carpentry Guy said that, before he could start dismantling the house, we needed to have somebody look at
our windows. So we had the Windows Guy come out. He was visibly shaken. I thought he was going to drop his clipboard. Apparently our windows have some kind of deadly window leprosy. They must be replaced immediately with new windows, which, to judge from the price and delivery date, will be made from gemquality diamonds on another planet. Did I mention the Termite Guy? No? Well, he believes that termites might be eating our house. So we are going to “tent” the house, which involves surrounding it with a giant tent, filling it with a deadly gas, and then having the homeowners crawl inside and mercifully kill themselves before they can write any more checks. No, that would be wrong. We have a job to finish. To make our new house habitable, we have to contact the Roof Guy, the Electricity Guy, the Plumbing Guy, the Gas Guy, the Alarm Guy, the Tree Guy, the Moving Guy, and all the other guys THEY will want us to contact. The
clipboard industry is depending on us! Meanwhile, we need to sell our old house. When people come to look at it, we scurry around hiding any possessions that would suggest to a prospective buyer that we are not Martha Stewart. For example, in our bathroom (this is true) we hide the big bottle of Plax mouthwash. We want prospective buyers to think, “It's a nice house! And the owners apparently have had no problems with dental plaque!” My big fear is that, when prospective buyers poke their heads into our daughter's room, the toys will start talking to them. “These people are really slobs!” Pooh will shout. “They're hiding their Plax under the bathroom counter! Also, their daughter wants to eat my head!” All I can say is, Pooh had better keep his fuzzy little mouth shut. Because I took Wood Shop. And I have a hammer. © 2000, THE MIAMI HERALD DISTRIBUTED BY TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES, INC.

Out of an abundance of caution, and with the health and wellbeing of our audience members, musicians, and staff in mind, the Oklahoma City Philharmonic announces the cancelation of its annual signature July 3rd Independence Day celebration Red, White and Boom. Scheduled to move from Stare Fair Park to Scissortail Park this year, this annual celebration attracts up to

The OKC Zoo is proud to be a Giraffe SAFE partner committed to providing annual financial support and bring attention to giraffe conservation programs in Africa. Giraffe Day activities are free with Zoo admission. To learn more, call (405) 425-0262 or visit okczoo.org.
