Fun in the Sun WELL, SUMMER’S OFFICIALLY UPON US. And in Oklahoma, that generally means heat, heat, heat. And yes, some like it hot, though I doubt there are too many out there who enjoy 100 degrees F. or above, which is not uncommon here. Still, there’s plenty of things to do in Cleveland County (and the surrounding area), both indoors and out, that won’t have you scraping yourself up off the toasty sidewalk. In our Guide to Summer, we offer some suggestions, three of which offer “wet and wild adventures”: HeyDay Entertainment, Andy Alligator’s and Westwood Aquatics Center,

all in Norman, and Moore’s Central Park (which includes a new water park). The first two—only a stone’s throw apart—also offer other family-oriented fun, including miniature golf, bowling, a ropes course and video arcades. Just for kicks, we also threw in a unique entertainment and learning venture, SKELETONS: Museum of Osteology, in OKC. Summer also is the season for outdoors grilling. In our Renovate and Refine column, we showcase a marvelous outdoor kitchen space belonging to a local family and custom designed by Outdoors Escapes. If you’ve been thinking about adding an outdoor space, make sure to check out this column for ideas. For the photography session associated with this column and the accompanying Culinary Creations spread, we asked our friends at Cusack Meats, Royal Bavaria Restaurant and Beergarten and La Baguette to supply the steaks, beer, and sides and dessert (Mediterranean pasta salad, tabouli and fruit

FIGHTING TIRELESSLY FOR THOSE WHO SERVED ARTICLE STACI ELDER HENSLEY PHOTOGRAPHY RYAN LASSITER WITH DEFINING IMAGE

IT’S A SAD FACT THAT THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO FIGHT FOR OUR COUNTRY OFTEN HAVE TO FIGHT AGAINST IT AFTER SERVING IN ORDER TO RECEIVE VETERANS’ BENEFITS THEY’VE RIGHTLY EARNED. For most, the fight is long and discouraging. They frequently get nowhere on their own or end up paying exorbitant lawyer’s fees for help that may or may not be effective. Fortunately, Oklahoma veterans and their family members have a third option. Headquartered in Newcastle, the nonprofit Veterans Corner is known nationwide for its high success rate with processing benefit and disability claims. It’s supervised and staffed entirely by veteran volunteers, many of whom are certified Veterans Administration claims processors, said Air Force veteran Alfred Hollis, who’s served as chairman of the board since 2015. “I do this because someone helped me,” he said. “Knowing you make a difference and to see the joy in someone’s eyes and the relief is why I do this. I get as much out of it as the people we help.” Working at no charge to vets and their dependents, Veterans Corner staff provide assistance with identifying what types of benefits a veteran is eligible for, helping the service member or dependent collect all the documentation needed to support their claim, ensuring that everything is being presented exactly as required, and then monitoring the claim’s progress. The organization frequently pays the costs for psychological and medical evaluations for those who can’t afford it, along with transportation to and from appointments. They also assist spouses and children of deceased veterans who are eligible for benefits. No veteran or spouse is ever turned away. Claim processing times vary widely, since no vet’s history and situation are exactly the same, Hollis said. Straightforward claims may take as little as one or two months to process; others can take several years. Settlements also vary widely, with some vets receiving as much as several hundred thousand dollars. For others, a simple $1,000 per month pension can make a huge difference in their quality of life. Veterans Corner also provides tangible daily living assistance, thanks to its small army of approximately 110 volunteers. This includes everything from food baskets, medical equipment, equipment repairs, rent and utilities assistance to transportation to doctors’ appointments and suicide prevention counseling. In total, the group provides thousands of dollars in assistance each month.

To help veterans who are unable to come during regular business hours, Hollis said, the organization recently expanded its hours of operation. The facility is open from 8 a.m. to noon Monday through Thursday. On the third Thursday of each month, the doors now are open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and from 8 a.m. to noon on the third Saturday of each month. Thanks to grants, volunteer labor, a 6-acre land donation and a huge amount of donated building materials, a new facility for Veterans Corner was completed in 2015. It’s located two miles west of the Interstate 35/State Highway 9 intersection, on the north side of the latter. The spacious facility offers a welcoming space where vets can come to not just discuss their case or pick up food, but also to socialize with other veterans and partake of doughnuts and coffee. (A full hot breakfast is served on Thursdays.) The building also contains a small chapel, which is available for private reflection or for small memorial services and weddings, Hollis said. Along with financial support, what is most needed now, Hollis said, are additional volunteers, ideally from younger generations. “Our average volunteer is 65,” he said. “We need the young Alfred Hollis (left), chairman of the board of trustees for Veteran's Corner, and Bob Staples, board member, look over items in the food pantry.

folks, so we can ensure (our work) is carried on.”

“I DO THIS BECAUSE SOMEONE HELPED ME. KNOWING YOU MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND TO SEE THE JOY IN SOMEONE’S EYES AND THE RELIEF IS WHY I DO THIS.”

Veterans Corner survives entirely on corporate and private donations (which are tax deductible), plus year-round community fundraisers. Donations can be sent to Veterans Corner, P.O. Box 722160, Norman, OK 73070; recurring donations can be set up by calling 833.0773. One hundred percent of the proceeds go to support veterans and their spouses.

AT THE TRAILS GOLF CLUB, YOU’LL FIND A HEALTHY MIX OF LONGTIME MEMBERS, RECENTLY RETIRED OU ALUMNI AND YOUNG FAMILIES ALONGSIDE THE YOUNGEST ATHLETES JUST CUTTING THEIR TEETH ON THE SPORT. No matter their background or skill level, they combine to create a unique membership community at this 18-hole championship course in Norman. That’s what makes this club special, according to Jim and Kathy Hess, who bought the Trails with real estate partners Darlene and Charlie Bowline in 2003. Everyone on staff works together to maintain the club’s all-are-welcome atmosphere. The club employs professionals committed to the business of golf, like Head PGA Golf Professional Alan Hager and Golf Course Superintendent Chris Randolph. The year-round service staff is bolstered by OU students on summer break during the busy golf season and it’s easy to find a friendly face at the Trails Bar & Grill or the Golf Shop. The 25-yard swimming pool that’s open from Memorial Day through Labor Day is staffed and managed daily by the Cleveland County YMCA. “Here, our members are going to engage our service staff; they’re going to want to know their background, what they’re studying in school,” Jim said. “I like that and I think that’s the atmo-

"Stop, Go and Tell,” developed by a licensed therapist and presented by a trained educator, is designed to equip parents and children with vocabulary, permission and courage to prevent sexual abuse. The words “sexual abuse” are not used in the children’s presentation, which focuses on personal space and boundary rules. As part of the activity, which is presented by Bethesda Inc., each child will receive a free hula hoop as a teaching tool and take-home toy. The program “Stop, Drop and Roll” plays on the longtime catch phrase on fire safety but goes well beyond that. Professional firefighters will give a lesson in fire safety, offering advice and actions

SHER I FF HOMETOWN HERO

IN THE MONTH WE CELEBRATE OUR FREEDOM, OUR THOUGHTS ARE WITH THOSE THAT SERVE THEIR COMMUNITY, BOTH AT HOME AND ABROAD. I spoke with Cleveland County Sheriff Todd Gibson about his time serving our country and our community.

Cleveland County Lifestyle | July 2018

TOD D G I B S O N REFLECTIONS ON A LIFE OF SERVICE ARTICLE LINDSEY DAVIES

Your whole life has been one of service, starting with service in the U.S. Air Force Reserve and continuing in law enforcement, including over 20 years in the Norman Police Department, and now as sheriff. What motivates you? Throughout my life, I have admired those who would stand up for those who could not stand for themselves. One of my earliest memories was seeing two boys in a field over by my house in Norman, near Cleveland Elementary, bullying another kid. I did not know any of them; however, I went over, stepped in and stood up to the bullies. I personally, and professionally, believe that a life worth living is a life that helps transforms others’ lives and the positively affects the community they live in. Who were your role models growing up? My role models growing up were anyone in uniform and my dad. I also had grandfathers that served in WWII whom I admired, and I loved to listen to their stories of war and service to country. You could live anywhere. Why here? This is home. I have often said that Oklahoma people are special and some of the nicest people in the world. Cleveland County citizens have seen their share of tragedies, and they not only rise to the occasion, they set the standard for the rest of the country to follow. What are your greatest challenges/rewards as sheriff? There are several. The two largest challenges are moving the Sheriff’s Office into the 21st century and implementing modern law enforcement philosophies and strategies regarding service delivery to the community. I have been rewarded when employees come up and tell me how much better things are and how they feel empowered to make decisions and do their job. I often tell them, “You don’t need permission to do the right thing.” If your decision falls in line with accomplishing our mission, vision and values, then don’t ask, just do it.

YOU DON’T NEED PERMISSION TO DO THE RIGHT THING.” July 2018 | Cleveland County Lifestyle

Outdoor Living OUTDOORS ESCAPES-DESIGNED SPACE SUITS FAMILY TO A “T” ARTICLE JERRI CULPEPPER | PHOTOGRAPHY RYAN LASSITER WITH DEFINING IMAGE

ARE YOU STILL COOKING OUT ON THE HIBACHI OR CHEAP GRILL YOU BOUGHT YEARS AGO AND IS NOW GATHERING RUST? Is your outdoor living space limited to the concrete flooring of your back patio? If so, you should know that many people in central Oklahoma—nay, across the country—are ratcheting up the whole extended-living concept and building, or having built for them, additions that make entertaining outdoors a lot more fun!

Cleveland County Lifestyle | July 2018

In the spring of spring 2016, the Cole family decided it was time to go for something a bit more elaborate, a setup that would allow them to cook outdoors, entertain and just hang out more often, and not just when the weather is ideal. So, they visited with Brian Scroggins with Outdoor Escapes. After scoping out other spaces and talking over their ideas for the space with Scroggins, a new space was built for them that features all their key wants: an outdoor living room to hang out in; a kitchen with built-in grill; a fireplace; storage area; and even a half bath. The Coles decked it out with a TV, table, and couch and chairs. Not too shabby! All the comforts of home, but outdoors. Shane Cole says that even though they have enjoyed the outdoor space for a couple of years now, there is nothing about it that they would change; it has all the features they could wish for.Â
