Village weighs options for shelter’s future By Ashley Haley Staff Writer

After a group of The Village residents, who have since established the Village Animal League, voiced concerns regarding conditions at the animal shelter last month, the city considers two options for improvement: maintaining the facility or contracting with Oklahoma City. At Tuesday’s city council meeting, The Village city intern Christina Meyers gave a presentation recommending that the city enter a contract with OKC Animal Welfare to manage the animal shelter. Meyers said working with OKC will allow the shelter to be fully staffed with professionals with a veterinarian on site, have a platform for rescue and volunteers, a “thriving” adoption program, a community cat program, immediate sterilization when an owner reclaims a pet and keep costs under $75 per animal. “Obviously we do have some concerns. Specifically, with the passionate volunteer group that we have here in The Village,” she said. “The residents of The Village are incredibly passionate about their people, their neighborhood and their community.” “This is one of the things we’re looking at when we’re considering contracting out. If we do contract out, I would recommend bringing the volunteer group into that plan.” Meyers said if the city decided to work with OKC, she would also recommend that any animal brought into the Oklahoma City Animal Shelter would ultimately be given to

Nichols Hills Public Works really a hardworking family By Ashley Haley Staff Writer With only 26 employees to maintain the city’s streets, water, sewers, code enforcement, sanitation and more, the Nichols Hills Public Works Department works hard daily to improve the city’s infrastructure. Nichols Hills Public Works Director Randy Lawrence describes the department as a close-knit family who strives to satisfy residents and city staff with the work they do.
“We have a group of hardworking guys that have ideas and they’re always quick to put those ideas to use,” Lawrence said. He said while the employees always try to plan things out, the needs of the city don’t always work out according to the plan. With the small amount of staff available, Lawrence said sometimes employees have to drop what they’re doing and help residents and other employees with major tasks. See NHILLS, Page 2

Nichols Hills Director of Public Works Randy Lawrence says there isn’t a day that goes by when he doesn’t see how hard his department works.
NHILLS From Page 1 “The funny thing about Nichols Hills is we have a lot of good residents here, so everyone knows who to make a phone call to,” he said. “We have to switch gears a lot here, but the fact that we can switch gears and keep moving forward, that’s what makes us who we are here.” Lawrence said there’s not a day that goes by when he doesn’t see examples of how hard the department works. For example, there are currently 10 employees on the city’s sanitation crew who practice outside service. With this service, crew members walk to a house, which can sometimes be more than a block from the street, retrieve the trash and walk it back to the trash truck. While this job may not seem difficult to others, Lawrence said the job can get tough in harsh weather conditions and it can take a toll on the body. The director said he’s also seen employees help elderly residents who have fallen and walk them back to their homes. Employees of the department always try to go above and beyond for the city’s citizens. “Our goals here is to satisfy the residents and ourselves,” Lawrence said. “We get compliments all the time and that’s what keeps us motivated to stay on track.” With everything the department does to keep the city running, Lawrence said without the support of Mayor Steve Goetzinger, the City Council and other city staff, public works wouldn’t be where they are today. “Everything that you do, you have to have a strong support system,” he said. Lawrence started with the City of Nichols Hills in 1987 working in the sanitation department. He later worked as a water well operator for 25 years, where he said he enjoyed learning about the dynamics of water including the chemistry of water, how to get it from the ground and how to distribute it to the customer. He’s served as the public works director for six years and although he said he didn’t feel ready for the role initially, the city’s support has allowed him to excel. As for upcoming improvements, Lawrence said his department added two new positions, including another building inspector and a clerk. Four city streets will also see upgrades next month as Lawrence and his assistant George Decher travel the cit and look for roadways that need improvement. Street upgrades are determined by age, how the street rides and the number of patches on the road. After 32 years of service, Lawrence said it’s been exciting to watch the city grow and he looks forward to where it will be in the future with the help of the Nichols Hills Public Works Department.

VILLAGE From Page 1 VAL so The Village animals can be connected with residents. While Meyers said she does recommend a contract, it is still a temporary solution. Volunteer leader Cheryl Steckler and volunteer Tom Wolfe also expressed their concerns for the future of the shelter and how they plan to improve the facility without contracting with OKC. Last month, the city agreed to cover spaying and nuetering of
the animals at the shelter so the volunteers could begin walking and interacting with them. OKC FRIDAY has been running a biweekly Rescue Dog of the Week feature which has also been successful in getting the animals adopted. “I know that money is important, but if you make the situation more livable for those dogs and you have someone who is willing to tend to the dogs, I think you can cut that back by half,” Wolfe said. “Right now, there’s no one out there, so anything we do is an improve-
ment.” Wolfe proposed an alternative plan, in which a local builder visits the shelter, assesses costs for upgrades and the volunteer group raises money to cover the improvements. He said he is most concerned with giving the animals an opportunity to go outside freely as opposed to waiting for a volunteer to walk them once a day. “We can get that done, but we need to be given the opportunity to do it,” he said. “When you spend time with those dogs, whether you want to or not, you develop a
relationship with them. I’m personally invested in this and I want to help. I’m happy to help.” Mayor Cathy Cummings said she will give the volunteer group the opportunity to organize a plan and present it at next month’s city council meeting. “I really do appreciate your passion and your love of these animals,” Mayor Cummings said. The next city council meeting is scheduled for Monday, Sept. 16 at 7:30 p.m.

Sports Weekly FOOTBALL | WEEK 2 PREVIEW: MINCO AT CROSSINGS CHRISTIAN • 7 P.M. FRIDAY
Knights face tough district opener in Minco By Jason Jewell Sports Editor Coming off a difficult loss last week at Rejoice Christian, the Crossings Christian football team looks to get back on track this Friday as it hosts Minco in the District A-3 opener. Kickoff is at 7 p.m. at Knights Stadium. “We were kind of shocked with our result (at Rejoice),” Knights coach Jonathan Keathly said. “We’re going to use it as a learning
tool and make some corrections.” One of those corrections is on offense where Crossings committed four turnovers against Rejoice Christian, three of them on interceptions by quarterback Owen Crotts. “We have to do a better job of taking care of the ball,” Keathly said. “Owen’s been playing really well for us. He just missed some throws he normally would make and things just snowballed on him. “We’re looking for

will count on a big game from safety Jonah Mahen with Minco’s emphasis in spreading the ball. “We’ll really need
Jonah to have a good game on the back end (of the defense),” Keathly said. The Knights also need a good night from defensive lineman Tucker Dlugonski and linebacker Zach Stephens, he said.

Oklahoma State Fair Film Festival
T
he art of film is ready for its close up. After more than 100 year of celebrating the best of everything in Oklahoma, from cows to cookies and watermelons to watercolors, the great State Fair of Oklahoma has added film to its Creative Arts competition. The inaugural Oklahoma State Fair Film Festival will take place this Saturday, Sept. 14, at the Oklahoma Contemporary theater space on the state fair grounds. Admission is free with your fair admission. There are three screenings, one for each category: 1 pm for high school and career tech films, 3:30 pm for college films, and 7 pm for professional films. Each of the screenings will last 45 minutes and will include the top three films in the category, an awards presentation, and a hosted discussion with the filmmakers. The idea for the festival was born last November at the Oklahoma Arts Conference. The Oklahoma Arts Council held their annual conference on Film Row in Oklahoma City and asked me to plan a film curriculum. Nancy Nortz, Sen-
ior Manager for Creative Programs at the State Fair, attended one of our sessions and approached me about adding a film contest to the fair. As a lifelong fair enthusiast, I loved the idea. We pulled a statewide group together, came up with a plan, and launched the contest this past summer. As with any new enterprise, we were worried no one would notice or care. The opposite happened. We received 466 submissions from every corner of the state, and a few entries from foreign countries that apparently did not read the criteria. To help select the winning films, I invited some of my favorite colleagues and collaborators from across the state. The judges included Gray Frederickson, Academy Award-winning producer and founder of the Digital Cinema Program at Oklahoma City Community College; Sharon
Ray, Founder and Executive Director of the Bare Bones Film and Music Festival in Muskogee; Ben Hlavaty, Director of Digital Media at Eastern Oklahoma County Tech Center and founder of the Oklahoma 48 Hour Film Race; and Abby Kurin, Director of the Tulsa Office of Film, Music, Arts, & Culture. From the hundreds of films submitted, the judges narrowed the field down to the top three films in each category. High school and career tech films include Halle Frieden’s Poolside, John Martinez’s If I Remember, and Ryan White’s Explore. College films include David McEntire’s Fostering the Future, Jordan Wilson’s What People Are and Kay Wilson’s Faith Over Fear. The professional films include Kyle Harris’s Los Americanos, Kyle Roberts’ Life, Upgraded, and Amy Smith’s Why Can’t We Go Home?. I’ll be hosting all three of the screenings and leading the discussion afterwards. Please join me as we welcome these talented Oklahoma filmmakers to the State Fair of Oklahoma.

Metro Library gives thousands of new books to local nonprofits The great American comedian and writer Groucho Marx once said he found television to be very educating. “Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book,” he said. The Metropolitan Library System’s annual Read it Forward program aims to provide more literacy opportunities to children throughout Oklahoma County through books provided to local non-profit organizations. The Metropolitan Library System donated over 4,900 new books to local nonprofit organizations following the completion of
the library’s annual Summer Reading program in August. The Read It Forward program gives Summer Reading participants the opportunity to donate their prize - a free book - to someone else or "Read it Forward" rather than claim it. The library system also donates a book on behalf of Summer Reading participants who complete 30 hours or more in the program. These books are then distributed to local nonprofits serving families and youth. After a record-breaking 2019 Summer Reading program, the library was able to donate more
than ever, totaling over 4,900 books. Local nonprofits benefiting from the 2019 Read it Forward program included Oklahoma City Indian Clinic, Sanctuary Women’s Development Centers, Palomar and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Oklahoma. “Giving our young patients books to read can enhance imagination and make reading fun! These aren’t just books they get to borrow, but ones they get to bring home, read and share,” Communications and Events Director for the Oklahoma City Indian Clinic, Angie Childers Reeves said. Summer Reading participants
earned prizes for each 10 hours read, which is the equivalent of reading 20 minutes per day, up to 30 total hours. Fifteen percent of participants reached the 30-hour completion, automatically donating a book to the Read It Forward program. Many participants also opted to Read It Forward rather than claim their prize. Over 30,000 readers participated in the annual Summer Reading program this year, a 7 percent increase over last year’s Summer Reading program. Readers also logged a total of over 25 million minutes, which is a 26 percent increase from 2018.

The new year brings a new schedule at Casady T
he start of every new year brings exciting and new challenges, an especially intriguing one at Casady this year is a brand-new schedule for the Upper and Middle Divisions. Last year, in the Upper Division, the day was structured so all classes would meet each day with a 7-period schedule and optional time at the end known as the double for a longer, extended class period.
by Katie Spiropoulos
CASADY COMMUNITY
This year’s schedule utilizes block periods in a rotation, meaning that unlike the previous schedule, classes will not meet every day. In the new system, a class will only meet four or five days at the teacher’s discre-
tion. This is due to one of the most significant changes, the addition of two periods called the X25 and X55. Both periods allow teachers the flexibility of either extending their class time to 80 minutes once a rotation or choosing to meet 5 of 6 days per rotation at the standard 55-minute length. Conversely, if a teacher chooses to take the X25, and extend the length of class, the class will
only be held 4 days out of 6. With these flexible periods in a day, teachers are given the ability to add activities and experiences during class using the X25 or keep a tighter schedule and strong communication with students using the X55. Every change takes some getting used to and many students have adapted well, including myself. As a freshman, it was slightly terrifying hav-
ing to learn a schedule that seemed everyone around me knew already, so going through this transition as a division is incredibly comforting to newcomers and the incoming freshmen. Something that is important to remember is that not only is this a substantial adjustment for students, but it also totally transformative for teachers and administration as well. Everyone in our community
is adapting to and taking advantage of the changes we have been given in our day to day school/work life to create a special kind of learning environment. Putting aside the small wrinkles and time it naturally takes to adapt new things, I believe the new schedule preserves what the Casady Mission of mind, body and spirit means, as we still attend Chapel and participate in sports every day.

Harding starts new tradition: Senior Sunrise Reigning in a new day, with a new senior class, in a new location and creating a new tradition as their legacy to the school, was the intent of Harding Charter Preparatory High School seniors at the first-ever Senior Sunrise. Held on the first Friday of class at the new Harding Charter Prep soccer field, over three-fourths of the seniors showed up with blankets and lawn chairs to document
the sun rising on their senior year as an Eagle and a new chapter in the school’s history. Event organizers Alexis Castro and Joseph Onema wanted to embrace the first Friday at a Senior Sunrise event to build senior class community and officially begin “making memories to last a lifetime,” they said. “We wanted to meet as a class prior the year’s begin-
ning and prior to homework, studying for Advanced Placement classes, college applications, college financial forms and everything else involved with a very busy year. We wanted everyone to realize we can count on each other to have a successful year.” The Harding Charter Prep Parent Organization provided juice and donuts before the seniors walked across the field to attend their classes.
High school plans New Conversation event Harding Charter Preparatory High School Senior Capstone Class will be welcoming all stakeholders including alums, Governance Board members, parents and community supporters to the New Conversation-New Location event on Thursday, Oct. 3, 2-3 p.m. in the school’s cafeteria.
The school is located at 1301 NE 101st St. This afternoon “conversation” will include a few alumni sharing one of their best Harding memories and a few of the current seniors will share one of their best Harding Charter Prep memories. Additionally, this will be the culminating social setting for
the Class of 2020 to apply and polish some of the etiquette skills they will have acquired at the beginning of school. Alumni will be paired with a senior to share their knowledge of the importance of good manners for a successful future. Through their interactions there will be opportunities for com-
munity members to guide these students about the importance of people skills, such as shaking hands, looking others in the eye when speaking and the simple act of a thank-you note. If interested in coming, contact Carole Kelley, community outreach, at ckelley@ hardingcharterprep. org.

Lessons learned from Kentucky Fried Chicken By Walker Moore The Baptist Messenger
I
started writing this article from a Kentucky Fried Chicken in Dublin, Ireland. Ireland is one of the countries I’ve always wanted to visit but never had. My great-grandfather emigrated from Ireland to the United States, and I would love to visit my roots. When I noticed that a flight out of London had a seven-hour layover in Dublin, I knew it was my chance to spend some time there. We landed early, and our plane was delayed going out, so I got to walk and explore Dublin to my heart’s delight. My son Jeremiah and I have several traveling traditions we have kept over the years. We both love movies and make it a point to watch one during our travels. We have watched movies inside our tent on our climb up Mount Kilimanjaro and while stranded at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. After hiking for eight hours in Jerusalem in 100degree heat, we agreed to catch a late-night movie. We saw “Spiderman: Far From Home.” A second thing we do is eat at a Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) in whatever country we are in. Jeremiah loves “The Colonel.” You may not know that KFC is the second-largest fastfood restaurant in the world, and in many countries, it is more popular than McDonald’s. In Israel, because of Jewish dietary laws, milk and meat cannot be mixed. So the breaded milk coating can’t be used to fry chicken and trying to find a KFC in Israel is about as difficult as trying to find someone
with raised hands in a Baptist church. Jeremiah and I both chuckled when we came across a “JFC” in Israel: “Jerusalem Fried Chicken.” Several thoughts came to my mind as I enjoyed my chicken fingers in Dublin. In the beginning, the church and the corporate world were inseparable. God used commerce to spread the Gospel. Jesus was born in a place of business and the first sermon powered by the Holy Spirit was preached in a marketplace. Lydia, the seller of fine purple linens, supported the apostle Paul’s ministry as he and his team stayed at her house. We call the plan of salvation the “Roman Road.” But do you know that the original Roman Road was the highway of commerce? When you find commerce, you find people. Where do we find Jesus, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John (all His disciples were businessmen) in the Bible? In the marketplace. Today, we have separated the church from commerce and instead of going to where the people are, we try to get people from the marketplace to come to the church. The second thought I had was that KFCs around the world are all similar, but different. We also ate at a KFC in Aqaba, Jordan. It looked like any KFC in America, but the writing was in Aramaic. The chicken tasted the same and the corn on the cob was delicious. Only the dipping sauce looked a little weird. Shouldn’t the church be the same? If you are a believer in Jesus Christ, you should find many more similarities than dif-
ferences when you attend a church other than your own. I have worshipped under a tree in the jungle, with an underground church in China and in a house church in Belgium. Most of the services were in a different language than English; sometimes the people were dressed differently, but there were more similarities than differences. I think sometimes we focus too much on trying to be different from the church down the road. Maybe we should focus more on what we have in common. My last thought is that KFC is all about Colonel Sanders. I have never been to a KFC where the iconic colonel was not prominently displayed. I might not be able to read the words, but I recognize the colonel, and when I see his profile, I know I’m in the right place. In the church, we should have the same experience. When we walk in, we should readily recognize the Spirit of the living God. “This is how you recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God” (1 John 4:2). The church is not about a picture on the wall but the Spirit of God that abides in us. Even Colonel Sanders knew that we all needed something more than physical food. He realized he was a sinner in need of a Savior. He wrote, “Since I prayed the sinner’s prayer, things have completely changed in my life … It has really made a difference with me.” No matter where I travel, I can almost always find a KFC. And I thank God that I can always find Jesus!

Two more reasons to vote for Maps 4 MAPS4 includes 16 critical needs of the city. It's focused on neighborhood and human needs, as well as the quality of life and job-creating initiatives. Soccer Fields Parks are critical to great neighborhoods and a great city. The MAPS 4 parks package allocates $140 million towards a transformation of our city parks system. For Fridaylanders and all of the city the $29 million for soccer facilities at C.B. Cameron Park near Lake Hefner and Southlakes Park in South OKC will be a boon. For years, Fridaylanders have driv-
en their kids to Kansas City or Dallas for major youth soccer tournaments, because OKC did not have the facilities. Ward 8 Councilman Mark Stonecipher assured OKC FRIDAY that the money to divert these tournaments to halfway in between those two cities, OKC, is in MAPS4 under this parks package. Thus eliminating the drive and reaping the revenues these tournaments generate for local stores, restaurants and hotels. Animal Welfare Fridaylanders care passionately about their animals, illustrated by the success of
Oklahoma Humane on Western. A generation ago, the live release rate in Oklahoma City was below 50 percent. In recent years, it has surged to more than 85 percent. Still, OKC Animal Welfare euthanized 670 animals in June alone. We cannot imagine how, much less what, that looks like. MAPS 4 would allocate $38 million for a a new main animal shelter to replace OKC Animal Welfare’s current facility, which is dated and inadequate. A new shelter in a public friendly facility should drop the kill rate as it boosts adoptions.
Commish making community visits I recently had a great meeting and tour of the OKC Arts Council and their staff. I have been attending the yearly Festival of the Arts since the ‘70s and was very interested in the Council’s work. I did not know much about their outreach before the visit. They aim to “connect the community to the arts,” with programs such as Art Moves, an hour of art performance around the downtown area on weekdays and first Saturdays. They also host “opening night,” a New Year’s Eve event in addition to the festival and other ventures. This was just one visit among several this summer, as I try to visit with a community organization weekly. I met Adam Luck, who serves on the State’s Pardon and Parole Board, at City Care Pershing Center. Adam gave me a tour of the Pershing Facility, to see the great work City Care does to aid those emerging from homelessness. I also enjoyed touring Pivot, a local non-profit that provides resources, food, and education to youth in need. In addition to organizations and non-profits, I like to explore local businesses. A great experience was touring the Pelco Manufacturing facility in Edmond. Besides a tour, I was able to see and learn about new technology for

Charter a sailboat and see the Amalfi coast for dazzling scenes By Vicki Clark Gourley Publisher
“The Amalfi Coast is one the most spectacular and famed areas of Italy. Houses tumbling down steep hillsides ending at sheer limestone cliffs or pristine beaches. Just thinking about it makes you thirst to go or return. My brother and his wife, Mike and June Graham, celebrated their 50th anniversary with a month in Europe and invited me and his sailing partners for the week of my birthday. (Wow, can I pick brothers?) Mike chartered 47foot Bali Catamaran with four bedrooms
and off we sailed to any island that struck our fancy. Our captain,
Alassandro, served as tour guide. So on his recommendation, we
discovered Procida and several other islands See AMALFI, Page B2

‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ takes rare flight Oklahoma City University is one of a handful of sites in the country where audiences can still see a theater adaptation of the classic novel “To Kill a Mockingbird.” The co-production with Oklahoma Children’s Theatre will run Oct. 23 to 27 in OCU’s Burg Theatre. A few community and amateur theaters across the country had initially started pre-production plans last year to stage their own the-
atrical performances of the Harper Lee novel. However, a Hollywood and Broadway producer claimed exclusive rights to the play as he developed his Broadway production, which is based on an adaptation by screenwriter Aaron Sorkin (“The West Wing,”) and stars Jeff Daniels in the leading role. The Broadway producer’s legal team sent cease-and-desist letters to theater companies that were planning to stage their own productions, including the Oklahoma Children’s Theatre. National media took notice, and calls for boycotts of the Broadway show —
and the company’s other hit shows including “The Book of Mormon” — began to grow. As criticism mounted, the producer struck a compromise: Theaters that had already scheduled a run for “To Kill a Mockingbird” would be allowed to continue, so long as they use a version by playwright Christopher Sergel. They later received permission to use the Aaron Sorkin script. “This is an extremely unique opportunity to see this play,” said Lyn Adams, executive director of Oklahoma Children’s Theatre. “There likely won’t be another opportunity to see it in regional theatre for another decade or two.” For more information about the Oklahoma City production, visit the website at okcu.edu/theatre/mockingbird.
