STEPPING INTO THE

‘TIME LAB’

AND IMPACTING GLOBAL MISSIONS

BY AMY BETH DOBBINS What do time travel, the globe and nationally-acclaimed Christian comedian, Anita Renfroe, have in common? The 2018 Vacation Bible School (VBS) hosted by Friendship Baptist Church in June!

This June, area children are invited to take part during the annual, weeklong VBS. The theme will be “Time Lab”, and attendees, from kindergarten to 8th grade, will travel back in time to experience the Bible in living color, as the stories are brought to life via skits, crafts, dress up days, theme-related snacks and so much more! “It is like nothing you have ever seen—this VBS,” recalls church member, Julie Dermody.

“About 150 families come together to help, and it is absolutely amazing!”

Not only do students have the opportunity to grow and learn via time travel into the Bible during the weeklong event, students will also have the opportunity to give back—to impact global missions on an incredible scale!

“Each spring, three boy captains and three girl captains are appointed as volunteers to spearhead the VBS teams, the boys versus the girls, in a competition designed to raise funds for missionaries currently 8

|

VALUES

serving in the field,” explains Dermody.

After the captains are in place, they begin brainstorming and organizing different fundraisers leading up to VBS in an effort to lead their teams to victory by donating the most money to missions. This year, missionaries in Costa Rica and Ethiopia stand to benefit from their efforts.

The kids are dreaming big, and the creativity is inspiring! This year, the boys have secured a major performance which is open to the public. For one night only, on Friday, June 8, Anita Renfroe will perform in Owasso at Friendship Baptist Church. Tickets may be purchased at the door; however, advance ticket purchases at $25.00 are encouraged, as seating is limited.

The girls have had some fantastic fundraising ideas as well. They hosted a Royalty Brunch for princes and princesses of all ages in May along with a variety of other events, including a successful bake sale.

Then, during the week of VBS, all of the attendees get in on the action, working in whatever capacity they are able to donate their individual earnings to the cause. It is a concerted effort of all of the kids, both before and during VBS,

OWASSO & COLLINSVILLE JUNE 2018

and the amount of funding coming from each source is kept a secret. In other words, no one knows how much was contributed by the captain-led events prior to VBS, thus no matter the amount of contribution, every child wins in the end. “It is so much more meaningful in that the children are encouraged not to just ask for donations, but to work for whatever they are able to earn the money and donate it,” explains Dermody. The excited expectation of the children is visible throughout the week of VBS, as they wait to see whether their sacrifices will take the top prize in the annual boys versus girls competition.

The real winners, however, are the souls that are impacted, globally, by a group of children from Oklahoma with such a big vision. Astoundingly, over thirty thousand dollars have been raised in past years which is proof-positive that youth are capable of great things!

hat’s in a name?

Everything in the roofing industry. Dun-Rite Roofing Inc.’s reputation stands out from the crowd. Established in 1992, Dun-Rite has served its customers in Oklahoma with one simple rule in mind—the Golden Rule.

“My philosophy is to treat customers as I would like to be treated, “explains Jim Murr, President and Owner of Dun-Rite. “One of my biggest pet peeves is a highpressure salesman. Your work is very important to us, but once you receive your free estimate/proposal, we will

VALUES

not make follow-up phone calls unless you request them.” Dun-Rite also refuses to conduct door-to-door solicitations following area weather incidents. Instead, Murr believes that people will reach out when they need something, and Dun-Rite vows to only give them what they need rather than inflating services for a profit. Serial findings of roof damage by out-of-state or fly-bynight companies hurt the consumers, according to Murr, and can even raise their insurance premiums after the filing of an unnecessary claim.

It is this type of honesty that has

OWASSO & COLLINSVILLE JUNE 2018

earned Dun-Rite an A+ rating with the BBB. It is also why so many realtors prefer working with Dun-Rite rather than other roofing companies. Dun-Rite is able to provide an honest assessment of work that needs to be done, and at no charge. Dun-Rite, uniquely, does not require any upfront deposits to begin work on a roof. Instead, the invoices may be paid at the time of closing.

Dun-Rite is also a go-to with builders. In fact, one builder relocated to southwestern Oklahoma, and, after trying out other roofers, soon realized that if he wanted jobs

Am mber ber Mu be Murr dis Murr isp play pl ays a wide wi de varriety iie ety of cch hoices oi s iin n its t sho howr w oo oom m

done right, he needed to continue working with Dun-Rite.

Dun-Rite’s business stems heavily from repeat customers. Customers return for future projects or send their friends and family via word-of-mouth.

Dun-Rite Roofing has moved to a beautiful, expanded showroom located off of highway 20 in Owasso.

There is such a large variety of designer shingles from several major brands as well as different colors and designs to choose from, customers may drop by to view the selections or check out a sample book. Dun-Rite is also happy to deliver sample books to

a customer’s site of choice.

Free estimates for any job may be scheduled in-person at the showroom, by calling the office or online at www.dunriteroofing.com.

A homeowner does not need to be present at the time of the inspection.

Instead, Dun-Rite will prepare and forward the estimate following the on-site visit.

Dun-Rite has also enjoyed longstanding and loyal relationships with its employees. With several crews, Dun-Rite is second to none in quality and efficiency. Extra precaution is taken in preserving

the site during construction, such as landscaping and surrounding areas, and they are careful to clean up following completion of the job.

Giving back to the community is an important part of our business, Dun-Rite is an active member of the Chamber of Commerce, a member of the Tulsa HBA and proud supporter of the local schools and other community organizations and events.

GOING STRONG

For Sixty Years in Claremore

BY AMY BETH DOBBINS

J

ack Kissee opened the doors to the Jack Kissee Ford dealership, in the spring of 1958, just off of Main Street in Claremore. In 1963, business was bustling and there was a need for expansion. Kissee Ford moved to its location on Lynn Riggs Blvd. where it remains strong to this day. Stephen J. Kissee, Owner and son of the late Jack Kissee, is now at the wheel, steering the family business with great success.

In a time where businesses, seemingly, open and shut overnight, how has Kissee Ford thrived for sixty years? “It’s the way we treat people,” Steve explains. “The internet may have changed business for customers in terms of being able to see the availability of inventory, but the internet doesn’t change who you can trust. It’s all about relationship. We have so many repeat customers. We excel at building relationships, and we are here to stay.”

Marking milestones and going the extra distance in customer service are where the rubber meets the road at Kissee Ford, both in the showroom and the service department—from the first visit, where an individual is warmly welcomed, to servicing a vehicle long after its purchase.

Steve recalls helping make many a sixteen-year-old’s birthday very sweet. In one instance, the Kissee Ford team even coordinated with the parents to deliver a newly purchased

ride to their residence while they were out to dinner, celebrating their daughter’s birthday. When the new driver arrived home, she was met with a huge surprise, adorned with a giant bow.

The company has had many opportunities to serve several generations of families. One couple came to know and trust them so much that they literally asked Steve to find a vehicle for them, giving no specs as to what they wanted, and vowed to purchase it, unseen.

They told him that they trusted him to find whatever would best fit their needs.

Steve takes great pride in serving in a business started by his parents and in his hometown. He was raised in Claremore and graduated from Claremore High School. In 1976, after college, he returned to work for the dealership, learning the ropes from the ground up. While his natural family members are involved in the business, he explains that the employees of Kissee Ford have become his family as well.

The office manager, for instance, has been with the company since 1981. The sales manager has been a valued employee since 1989.

And the list goes on, every single member playing a valuable part of the success equation and translating into a great customer experience.

Kissee Ford is community driven

in multiple ways. It participates in Ford’s “Drive For Your School” fundraiser events for local districts, taking new vehicles to a school site. Then, Ford donates $20 to the district’s fundraiser for every test drive of a new vehicle. The dealership also awards yearly scholarships for students attending Rogers State University and supports FFA auctions along with sponsoring numerous community events.

Such a big accomplishment demands a big celebration. Jack Kissee Ford intends to celebrate its 60th on Thursday, June 28; Friday, June 29; and Saturday, June 30.

Customers can stop in and enjoy the festivities. There will be a cookout, drawings for door prizes and special pricing on all inventory, new and used—all as a giant ‘THANK YOU’ to the public for their loyalty. Kissee explains: “We are looking forward to this celebration and to show our appreciation to the customers. We want all our customers, our loyal ones and new to come out and enjoy the celebration!”

Their grand prize drawing for $5,000 off the price of a new or used vehicle will be Friday, June 29 at 6AM. You need not be present to win.

JUST IN TIME FOR EARLY VOTING Rogers County Adds New Satellite Location

BY AMY BETH DOBBINS

R

ogers County is passionate about making every effort to provide accessibility to its voters.

“The state legislature has approved large counties to have satellite locations for early voting,” explains Julie Dermody, Secretary of the Rogers County Election Board. “Rogers County has a large physical area, and there is a need for voters to be able to vote more conveniently.”

For this reason, a new satellite location is being added for early voting in elections in Owasso. The satellite will be available to any and all voters, legally registered to vote in Rogers County, at Central Baptist Church 9001 N. 145th E. Ave. Owasso, OK on Thursday, June 21 and Friday, June 22 from 8am-7pm and Saturday, June 23 9am-2pm, in advance of the June 26 primary election date. Additional dates for early voting in future elections will also take place at this location. As always, Rogers County voters may also cast their early ballots at the Rogers County Election Board on those same dates and times; however, the new location allows for flexibility and convenience if a citizen works or lives closer to the satellite location. If a citizen waits to cast his or her vote on the election date (June 26 for the primary election, for instance), the vote will need to be cast at a designated polling place to which he or she has been assigned.

By allowing early voting to be held at two convenient locations, the Rogers County Election Board, as well as the new satellite location in Owasso, Rogers County is hopeful that greater participation will take place. Recent inquiries by citizens has prompted the satellite location. The hope is for turnout to be a record one this year. Interest in upcoming state issues such as education 22 |

VALUES

and legalization of medical marijuana as well as a record number of candidate filings have certainly sparked a renewed interest in the local electorate. To have two locations for casting an early vote should help to process the anticipated rush at the ballot box more efficiently.

The opening of the polls for early voting on a Saturday will provide a measure of convenience as well.

Whether making plans to vote early at the Rogers County Election Board in Claremore or at the new satellite location in Owasso, or waiting until the primary election day to cast a vote at the assigned polling place, voters can ensure a smooth process by making a few preparations. Simply check your status as a voter by going online at: www. rogerscountyelectionboard.org . There, you will be able to enter your first and last name as well as your date of birth to make sure that you are currently registered to vote. This website has information as to which precinct you are registered and your polling place location (if you chose not to vote early at one of the early voting locations).

There is even a map to direct you to your polling place on election day. If you are not yet registered to vote, you may easily register by printing the registration application from www. rogerscountyelectionboard.org, fill it out and mail it to the election board. You may register to vote in person at your local tag agency, library or the Rogers County Election Board in Claremore.

The website also allows you to review and print a sample ballot in advance of voting, so that you can research and understand the issues and be familiar with the candidates running for office before voting on them.

1. Bring only what you need.

When planning your next vacation, pack a lighter wallet, suggests RCB Bank Vice President, Security Officer Christy Wild.

“Bring only the amount of cash you will need and maybe one credit card.”

2. Leave your debit card at home.

“Especially if you are traveling internationally,” says Wild. “Debit cards tie directly to your bank account. If fraudulent charges are made, it is possible money may be taken out of your account that day.”

If debit card fraud goes unnoticed for a number of days, thieves may deplete your funds. Credit card fraud is not an immediate financial impact on you.

26 |

VALUES

Under the Fair Credit Billing Act (FBCA) and the Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA), federal law limits your liability for unauthorized charges, but your protection depends on the type of card and when you report the loss.

After you report fraud, your bank has to investigate and process your claim, which takes time. Rules pertaining to refund timeframes vary between types of fraud.

Ask your bank for details.

3. Keep an eye on your account.

“From the time your card leaves your wallet until the time it returns, it is technically at risk,” Wild says. “It is crucial to monitor your accounts.”

Proper monitoring will help you find discrepancies.

OWASSO & COLLINSVILLE JUNE 2018

Early detection and fast action to alert your credit card company and bank is the key to protecting your money.

Many credit card companies and banks offer text banking. This is a great fraud detection tool as you can set up transaction alerts.

Set an alert to notify you each time a transaction occurs on your account. This will help you spot charges you did not initiate. Text banking message, data rates and fees may apply.

You can also download your bank’s mobile banking app. This is another good tool that allows you to scan your accounts anytime from practically anywhere.

“Do not log in to your account on a public Wi-Fi network,” Wild says. “Fraudsters hack

public networks and can watch you from the shadows.”

4. Tell your bank when and where you are going.

Before you hit the road, notify your bank and tell them your travel plans.

“It’s added protection,” Wild says. “It alerts them to keep a closer eye on your account. Plus, it helps to make sure they don’t decline your card when you are making purchases in another state, which to a bank may look like suspicious activity.”

outh Pointe Chevrolet is synonymous with strong core values. Integrity, transparency, professionalism and teamwork come standard with each transaction whether purchasing a vehicle or having one serviced or repaired.

“These aren’t just words, “explains Dustin Hightower, General Manager of South Pointe Chevrolet, “It’s really a lifestyle.”

As a part of a larger cooperative, or network, of independent 28 |

dealerships, South Pointe is privy to a huge inventory of vehicles, both new and used. “We are the dealership that gives you more—more choices for Chevy vehicles, thus greater access to a larger selection,” states Hightower.

Customers may shop our online inventory and get pre-approval for financing online. The inventory is quality; whether it is new or used, in that the pre-owned vehicles are subject to a rigorous inspection prior, to being labeled as CPO

The South Pointe sales team are consistent with its core values. Each salesperson is welltrained and knowledgeable about the products being offered to their customers. Moreover, the shopping experience is lowpressure and calm. Customers are greeted, and the sales team is helpful and responsive to needs, but never pushy; always helping you with information needed to make your best buying decision.

FESSIONALISM • TEAMWORK South Pointe continues to turn one-time transactions into longterm relationships. The service department is in part the reason for returning customers. They are concerned with the customer’s needs, and strive to find a way to help them.Their mantra is, “What is the next right thing? Let’s do that.” The service staff goes above and beyond to find solutions for every situation, even offering financing options for repairs if a warranty is not available. To

further their quest for satisfied customers, every initial diagnostic test is free of charge.

One key quality unique to South Pointe is the hands-on nature of its management.

Accommodation of the customer goes beyond finding solutions for repairs and finding options to make them affordable. Drop off of a vehicle to the service department is available 24 hours per day, and a courtesy pick-up is also available.

In fact, South Pointe, uniquely tries

to make each service transaction convenient via its option for online scheduling. This allows a customer to schedule appointments for service or repair wherever they are and at any time of day, reducing a customer’s need to work around set office hours. To ensure convenience for their customers, status updates are accessible online.

Customers may check the stages of progress on their own time from theeir computer or phone.

in the workplace, Alex received the coveted “Governor’s Disability Award of Excellence” in 2017.

Employee of the Year, Tracy Daubert’s story began thirty-six years ago, when she was born with a chromosomal anomaly.. Her parents were told that if she lived she would have severe intellectual disabilities and delayed development. Undaunted by this diagnosis, Traci’s parents took her home and treated her just like her sisters. With physical, occupational and speech therapies and other supports, Traci flourished.

During Traci’s senior year at Union High School, she participated in Goodwill’s Transition Work Adjustment Program. After graduation in 2000, she came to work for Goodwill’s contract services, where she participated in collating, packaging and assembly work that Goodwill performs for

local companies.

Five years later, Traci transitioned to Goodwill’s hospital enclaves, shredding confidential documents at SouthCrest Hospital, and later at OSU Medical Center. During that period, she developed social and work skills and learned how to function as a member of a team to accomplish tasks. When a new position as a member of a cleaning enclave at St. John Hospital in Broken Arrow became available, she accepted it. The job was a perfect fit for her. It challenged her to learn new work skills, while interacting with hospital personnel and members of the community. When that contract ended, she joined Goodwill’s cleaning enclave at OSU Medical Center where she continues to thrive today.

Despite what she has had to overcome, Traci always wears a smile.

She is very active and loves the

social aspect of her job, particularly the interaction with hospital staff.

She feels comfortable and at home at work with her friends and staff, and is proud that she is part of the community. “Goodwill has been such a big part of Traci’s life,” says her mother. “She has been working with Goodwill for seventeen years, and if she could work every single day she would!”

As you have read, your donations are helping people in our community overcome considerable challenges to meet their goals. Your clothing and household items can be donated at your neighborhood Goodwill donation center.

BEST FIREWORKS WITH THE LARGEST SELECTION

BY BEKI AKIN

H

ere in North America we celebrate our freedom and those who have and do serve our great nation for that freedom. Across this nation on July 4th, celebrations will include fireworks some little, some noisy and some will create huge beautiful colors that light up the skies.

Interesting fact about fireworks.

They were discovered in China. All by accident sometime between 600-900 AD by mixing some common kitchen seasoning along with charcoal, sulfur and a few other ingredients created a form of gunpowder. Then to see how to get this formula to ignite, it was put into bamboo shoots and thrown into the fire to produce a loud blast.

born! By the Renaissance time, schools were learning how to make fireworks produce brilliant colors and booming sounds.

On July 3, 1776, the day before the Continental Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence, John Adams wrote a letter to his wife in which he presaged the role of fireworks in Fourth of July celebrations. “The day will be most memorable in the history of America,” he predicted. “I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade…bonfires and illuminations [a term for fireworks] From one end of this continent to the other, from this

The Castle is air conditioned, with accessible restrooms, paved parking, and knowledgeable and friendly salespeople to assist you.

GUIDELINES FOR FIREWORKS SAFETY: Fireworks are beautiful when they explode in the sky in multiple colors, patterns and sequences.

Follow safety rules and use basic precautions when handling fireworks so that your celebration remains beautiful and safe. The Consumer Product Safety Commission and the National Council on Fireworks Safety offer the following safety checklist: Always read and follow label directions.

OKLAHOMA FREEWHEEL

klahoma Freewheel has a vision: “Through bicycling, Freewheel connects Oklahoma’s unique peoples, cultures, communities, and landscapes. We celebrate a happy, healthy, safe and sustainable Oklahoma.” Its mission is to “promote and strengthen cycling tourism in Oklahoma.”

And as 2018 marks Oklahoma Freewheel’s 40th year, they will bring their mission and vision to a road that is very dear to Oklahoma’s heart—Historic Route 66.

Each year, bicyclers who participate in the Oklahoma Freewheel event travel across Oklahoma during the second week of June, typically beginning near the Texas-Oklahoma border and ending up at Oklahoma’s northern border.

This year, the trip will begin on June 9 in Elk City (near the OklahomaTexas panhandle border), follow Oklahoma’s stretch of Historic 66 through Weatherford, El Reno, Luther, Bristow, Catoosa, Miami, and will culminate on June 16 in Joplin, Missouri, right across the Oklahoma-Missouri border.

Daily mileage on the ride varies from 50 to 75 miles per day with participants camping in rural Oklahoma communities each

night. This year, the bicyclists will spend the fifth night of their trip in Catoosa, where they will be greeted with shelter and refreshments before embarking on the fifth day of their seven day trip—a day in which they will pass some of Rogers County’s most historic sites, like Catoosa’s Blue Whale, Claremore’s Will Rogers Hotel and J.M. Davis Gun Museum, and Foyil’s Andy Payne Memorial.

Route 66 has been forgotten by the mapmakers; however, its history lives on in the hearts and minds of Americans who live and travel along “the Mother Road.”

The highway was built in 1926 and stretched from Chicago, Illinois to Los Angeles California. It runs like a diagonal banner across Oklahoma, from its northeast shoulder to its southwestern waistband. As Oklahoma Freewheel’s bicyclers travel through, they will be reminded that even though Oklahoma landscape changes dramatically as they cross the state, one thing does not change—the friendly and welcoming nature of the people who live here.
