ASK THE MONEY MAVEN STRAIGHT-FORWARD, NO-NONSENSE TALK ABOUT YOUR MONEY
Layoffs: Coping with Fear, Anger and Money BY MELANIE HASTY-GRANT
As oil and gas prices drop, many Oklahomans fear for their jobs. The anticipation of what’s to come makes fear and anxiety soar. All of us have a need for certainty in our lives. When we are faced with uncertainty in our jobs, it threatens our financial security and our family. It often leaves folks feeling powerless, scared and angry. It’s normal to have those feelings but important to remember that you don’t have to let your circumstances control and define you. While you may not have control of the circumstances, you have control over your own mind. Certainty comes from inside you, not from what has happened to you. Your thoughts, your feelings and your response are all up to you. You can begin to take control by developing a plan for your finances and creating a positive outlook for your future.
Revisit your Budget. Look at what is really a necessity and what you can cut back on. It may require a temporary change in lifestyle and expectations. For example, shelter, food and transportation are necessities. Fine dining, $5,000 mortgages and Porsche payments are not. Be practical and realistic. Apply for Unemployment and Prepare Your Résumé. Begin right away by utilizing your personal and professional networks for new opportunities. Get that résumé up to speed and start sending it out as soon as possible.

Building with Pride
Inola Portable Buildings & Pole Barns offers variety and top grade work. By Carol Beck-Round Whether you need a storage building, pole barn, loafing shed, metal garage, cabin or other portable building, Inola Portable Buildings & Pole Barns can meet your needs. In business since 1998 at the same location, the company has earned an excellent reputation. According to owner Carl Parson, “Customers drive from Bristow, Sapulpa, Tulsa and beyond to purchase their portable buildings from us.” Using only top-grade materials on everything they build, the company is located off the north side of Highway 412 at 30355 S. 4230 Rd., where you will find more than 50 displays available. Buildings can be delivered or built on location, but about 90 percent of the businesses’ work is done on location. In the company’s 17-year history, “We’ve never had a complaint about our buildings,” says Parson. “Our business has grown through word-of-mouth. We started with two buildings when we opened, and it just continues to grow each year. We’ve found that if you do everything better than the next guy, you’ll stay busy.” While they do mainly residential work, the company has expanded – again, by referrals – to include portable building projects
at public schools in Claremore, Jay, Catoosa, Inola, Locust Grove and Tulsa, as well as businesses like Arby’s, Pizza Hut and
Cherokee casinos. “We have also constructed portable buildings for the City of Tulsa,” he says. Conventional or Dutch Barn

portable buildings include treated skids along with treated floor joists on 16 inch centers, ¾ inch tongue and groove flooring, #2 stud grade materials, a 50-year factory warranty on Smart trim and on Smart panel siding, 30# felt paper and a 30-year warranty on Tamko shingles. Extras, such as steel doors, windows, four-foot loft, work bench and a four-foot treated ramp, are available at an additional charge. Sizes begin at 8x8 up to a
16x24 and larger. Pole barns, which range in size from 24x24 to 40x60, include one walk-in door and one 9x8 overhead door. An additional door is available for an extra charge. The company offers a 40-year manufacturer’s warranty on the 29-gauge metal used in the pole barns and loafing sheds, while the insulation comes with a manufacturer’s 10-year warranty. Also included in the base price is a four-inch concrete slab with rebar 18-inch on center in floor and 10-foot sidewalls. “We can build a pole barn, concrete included, within a week,” says Parson. “We can complete a portable building – built on site – in one day.” The company also builds custom carports and RV covers. Although they are open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday, Parson will meet with potential customers at a different time to accommodate their schedules. “They just need to give us a call and we can work it out.” The company also offers rent-to-own options.

Partners TTCC with Tulsa Tech Enrollment soars 132 percent from 2013 to 2014 with the addition of Owasso campus. By Jim Butcher Do you live in the Owasso area and have had your educational and career goals interrupted? If you answered “yes,” a possible solution to returning to school and climbing that proverbial career ladder is not far away. Tulsa Community College has partnered with Tulsa Tech at several locations in the metro area to provide a golden opportunity, not only for high school students, but for adults who want to continue their education and earn an associate’s degree. Additionally, you
could attend and enhance your skills to lead to a promotion or move into a more promising job. In August 2013, TCC and Tulsa Tech opened its doors at the newly constructed Owasso campus located off Highway 169 and East 106th Street North. This beautiful facility provides a quarter million square feet for both educational units. Dr. Paula Willyard, dean of the Owasso Campus, explained, “The Owasso campus was conceptualized to meet the population growth and

the demand from the community of Owasso and the surrounding areas, including Collinsville, Skiatook, Claremore, Oologah, Catoosa and Bartlesville.” For many years, Tulsa Community College held classes for adult learners at Owasso High School in the evenings. “Our partnership with Tulsa Tech allows us to continue to expand our academic offerings, address continued growth in health-related fields and expand access to higher education.” The Owasso campus provides higher education access that is convenient and comparable to courses and services offered at the traditional TCC campuses. Students will have access to computer labs, placement testing, as well as academic and career advisement. Dr. Willyard, who also oversees the TCC classes offered at the Northeastern State University Broken Arrow campus, emphasized, “Citizens who are concerned about the use of taxpayers’ money will be glad to know that the organizations’ sharing of facilities is a good use of tax dollars. Future plans include providing increased college access using technology, offering a wider variety of classes, and expansion of existing programs.” In the fall of 2014, TCC began

TCC Owasso has experienced an enormous amount of growth in the past year. For the 12-month period from August 2013 to August 2014, enrollment soared by 132 percent. Growth from the spring semester of 2014 to the spring semester of 2015 jumped an additional 36 percent. Tulsa Community College has campuses spread through the metro Tulsa region. In fact, TCC is Oklahoma’s largest community college, with more students and more degree earners than any other community college in the state. “We offer students a choice
of 235 associate degrees and certificate of completion programs at TCC,” Dr. Willyard said. “TCC students come from every walk of life, and our graduates work in all sectors of business and industry to help build a stronger, more diverse economy.” Dr. Willyard has been with TCC for more than 20 years. “If you are interested in furthering your education or would like to focus on a new career and have questions, please call us,” she said. “We want to help.”

Miss Brooks has been dreaming of a Caribbean cruise, frequently using the travel brochures as a way to escape the challenges of school. She’s happy someone else will be coordinating the annual school play, but an unfortunate turn of events leaves her in charge, again. Erika Hall (Miss Brooks) did some research about the show before she auditioned. “I thought the story seemed like a lot of fun,” she Hall. “My husband is a teacher, so I was able to relate to what goes on within a school.” The show offers entertainment for both children and adults. “It’s funny and fast paced with themes that both older and young people will appreciate,” said Mike Neldon (Mr. Wadsworth). “It will be a really good time,” said Lydia Ward (Doris). “I mean, romance and comedy – it doesn’t get much better than that.” It’s a family affair as Dr. Theresa Horton (Miss Audubon)
and Alice Horton (Jane) join the cast. They have not performed together, but Alice has been in several shows with Owasso High
School and Clark Youth Theatre. Dr. Horton hasn’t been on the stage since college. “I have wanted a chance to act on stage with

FFriendship Day Register by April 15 for the event on May 4 to learn more about participating in Oklahoma Home & Community Education.
By Jim Butcher Attention, women of Tulsa County! What are you doing for the rest of your life? Do you want to learn new skills? Make lifelong friends? How about lending a hand to help others? Oklahoma Home & Community Education (OHCE) is seeking new blood, and in return will provide you with opportunities in these areas. Before making a commitment to change your life for the better, perhaps you need more information and an introduction to the county group, which is located in all 77 counties. This introduction can be found at “Friendship Day” set for 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday, May 4 at the OSU Extension Center, 4116 E. 15th St., on the north side of the Tulsa State Fair Grounds. According to Kathy Erwin, chair of the membership committee, Friendship Day provides an excellent opportunity to learn more about the organization at the OHCE Week Celebration. “Following lunch, you and your friends will have the opportunity to learn more about OHCE at our Committee Fair,” she explained. Basket weaving instructor Yvonne Dulaney will instruct the group on making a woven May Day basket. Cost for the day
is $12, including lunch and the basket workshop. Reservations must be made by April 15. You may be wondering, exactly what is Oklahoma Home & Community Education? Longtime member Mary Ellen Kingdom explained that the organization is about building better communities by working together through leadership and service. “Another key component is providing continuing education from the OSU Extension Service on matters affecting the individual, home, family and community,” she said. “It’s been proven that by working together, we can achieve more.” The Oklahoma Home & Community Education organization was formally created in 1935, but organizations known as “farm women’s clubs” existed as early as 1910 in Oklahoma. Gradually acquiring the name “home demonstration clubs,” these groups flourished and multiplied in the state after Congress passed the SmithLever Act on May 8, 1914. Their mission was to distribute educational information on agriculture and home economics to individuals who did not attend college. In 1914, Oklahoma A&M College (now Oklahoma State
University) organized the college’s program to train women home demonstration agents. After their training, they traveled by train, horse and buggy, or automobile to rural Oklahoma to promote home economy. They informed women on gardening practices, raising poultry, the use of the pressure cooker (L to R): Mary Ellen Kingdom, Yvonne Dulaney and Kathy to preserve meats, fruits, and Erwin urge members and nonmembers to attend Friendship vegetables, preparation of nutriDay to meet new friends and learn about the OHCE, which tious meals, sewing clothing, and has been here since 1935.

Life Stressors Can Trigger Depression By Dr. Jeff McIlroy Joe’s story: I work a stressful job and balance that with family life and all activities associated with having active kids. My depression was severe – it affected my work, home and social life. My first episode of depression started in January of 2008 and was ongoing for almost a year before I started TMS Therapy. I decided on TMS Therapy because medications had too many side effects and didn’t seem to work. TMS Therapy treatment seemed promising. Once you commit to it, you see the difference fairly quickly. Once I started seeing the results, I was encouraged and felt good about the treatment. Ten treatments into the program, I felt happier, started thinking more positively – I feel like I have returned to the way I felt before I became depressed.
Christine’s story: I am a stay at home mom and wife of a firefighter. I home-school my youngest girl (12 years old). My oldest is 14 years old. My husband and I have been happily married for 16 years. My first episode of depression started directly after the birth of my second daughter. I had 2-3 episodes of depression before the birth of my second daughter, but they all resolved without meds. The depression after my second’s birth was far worse. I was at a standstill – crying all the time, erratic mood swings, couldn’t sleep, mind raced and had terrible thoughts.
After learning my insurance would cover TMS Therapy, I decided to receive treatment. I had tried so many meds, I was ready to be off of them for good. I was very skeptical in the beginning and the process hurt a little in the beginning. After I think the 5th or 6th treatment I started to notice it working. I was weaned off of my medication as I started to feel better and treatments didn’t hurt as they did in the beginning. My life has changed since receiving TMS Therapy. I don’t need meds anymore so I’m not dealing with side effects. I’m starting to lose the weight that I gained while on the meds. I have real emotions. I am me again, not some watered down version of me.
At Strength of Mind Behavioral, we are dedicated to making psychiatry innovative, effective and accessible throughout our area. By using diverse, personalized and comprehensive treatment methods, we aim to meet a variety of patients’ needs. We were the first in Tulsa to provide TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation). TMS therapy is an FDA approved, noninvasive medical treatment for major depression. The treatment gives direct MRI strength magnetic pulse stimulation to the frontal lobe of the brain, compelling neurons to start firing, which leads to restoring the brain to normal functioning levels while lifting moods and encouraging ambition. TMS therapy has many advantages, including no medical side effects, the patient is fully awake during treatments, and results are known definitely within four to six weeks.
Our team strives to partner with you in your journey to regain your quality of life, restore your health and rediscover a life that is free from depression. TMS therapy is now covered by insurance companies including Medicare. NeuroStar has been featured on the Dr. Oz Show: www.doctoroz.com/videos/transcranialmagnetic-stimulation-cure-depression-pt-1.

GGet a Green Lawn SoonerLawn provides a six-step lawn care program that begins in early spring.
By Deanna Rebro A thick, lush, head-turning landscape this summer begins with a phone call today to SoonerLawn. So much of caring for a lawn comes down to knowing what needs to be done and when to do it. For the past 10 years, SoonerLawn has been delivering a six-step lawn care program from early spring through fall that gets rid of weeds and nourishes grass so it will look good year-round. Owner and U.S. Army Captain Michael Bolton says that early spring is the best time to begin preparing your lawn. SoonerLawn’s six-step program begins with an application of preemergent herbicide for crabgrass control, continues with additional weed control and fertilizers during spring and summer, and ends with a winterization weed control in the fall. While many homeowners treat their own lawns and obtain so-so results, the SoonerLawn professionals take things to the next level by treating lawns with the right formulations for that particular grass at the right times throughout the year for optimum results, applying lime to regulate proper soil pH to allow maximum effectiveness of fertilizers, and monitoring for insects and diseases.
One of the hallmarks of SoonerLawn is quick results. “We don’t have to tell our customers their lawns are getting better. They can see improvement each time we’re there,” says Michael. One cus-
tomer, president and landscaping chairman of The Reserve at Battle Creek said, “The Reserve looks better that it has ever looked in the past, thanks to the Sooner crew. They are very professional
and take great pride in their work. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a lawn care company.” Michael adds that SoonerLawn’s prices are below most,
if not all, other local lawn care companies. And their prompt and professional customer service goes above and beyond expectations. “We keep our customers happy by offering great service at a great price with great results. Just give us a chance to prove it,” he says. A five-year customer echoes his comment. “We have found Michael’s work to be very good, as well as his pricing. We would highly recommend his services.” SoonerLawn serves residential and commercial customers throughout Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Sand Springs, Owasso and Claremore. Optional services include fertilization of flower beds, aeration for more effective watering and nourishment, perimeter control, insect control of fleas, ticks, ants, spiders and chinch bugs, mole control, turf disease control and fescue seeding. They are fully licensed and insured, and all their recommended work is guaranteed. SoonerLawn is also accredited with the Better Business Bureau. Preparation now will go a long way toward enjoying the healthy green lawn you want this summer. And you don’t have to lift a finger except to call SoonerLawn.

Whether the event is indoors or outdoors, they are ready to facilitate the vision. Conferences and concerts featuring world-class talent frequently fill seats at the Mabee Center. On April 7, the OSU Tulsa Business Forum brings Steve Wozniak for a question and answer session at the Johnston Theatre. Wozniak, co-founder of Apple and inventor of the Apple II computer, is offering a rare opportunity for Tulsans who are interested in his storied career and thoughts on the current state of technology.

Charity events are especially well-suited for the campus, which boasts a scenic walking path and wide open green spaces with plenty of shade trees. The campus offers two sanctioned courses, so city streets are seldom closed for races. On Sunday, April 19, the Parkinson Foundation of Oklahoma hosts A Walk in the Park. The sanctioned 5K and 1 mile fun run/walk is open to people of all ages and abilities, as well as dogs on a leash. Registration is free, though donations are encouraged. A Walk in the Park kicks off in the Mabee Center parking lot at 2 p.m. with registration at 1 p.m. Oral Roberts University is a world-recognized institution with deep ties to Tulsa. The Mabee Center serves the surrounding community by attracting top business leaders and performers, while giving local schools and organizations a world-class venue for events.

Reputation Through the Roof After 47 Years in Business Metal roofs have a number of advantages over other types of roofing materials. They not only look sleek and polished, thus increasing a home’s curb appeal, they are also highly energy-efficient and long-lasting. “Our metal roofs are guaranteed to last a long time, much longer than standard roofing materials – we offer a 40-year warranty,” says Tammy Laakso, marketing and sales manager for Lucas Metal Works. “The large selection of options is another advantage. Our 26 gauge metal panels are available in 16 different colors.” Metal roofs are highly durable, which is critical in the ever-changing weather landscape of Oklahoma, where within a few weeks it’s possible to see snow, ice, sleet, sun, rain, high winds and tornadoes. Lucas Metal Works also serves
residential customers with the addition of metal buildings to their properties. “Metal buildings are great for storage space or work space. We have many customers who purchase metal buildings for hobbies and storing cars, airplanes, boats and RVs. Metal buildings are also used as greenhouses,” says Tammy. “The vinyl insulation used on the inside of the metal buildings keeps the noise factor down while being energy efficient. These affordable buildings are a useful and sound investment to add to your property.” Tammy says that in addition to their top-tier products and talented team of professionals, what sets Lucas Metal Works apart is the strong relationship they maintain with their customers. “Lucas has been a trusted, respected name in the industry for
almost five decades. We work closely with our customers from start to finish and beyond.” In 1968, Raymond Lucas started up a small custom metal works shop, and it was not long before his ideas outgrew his humble space. What began as a one-room shop is now a sprawling facility in Ochelata with a team of nearly 50 employees. They are expanding their facilities this year with the addition of a new building. Lucas offers a variety of services in addition to metal roofing and buildings, including equipment such as hay spears, bale unrollers, rock bucket, grapples, pallet forks, and disc-mower caddies. Their signature piece of equipment is the Groundhog Arena Tool, designed by Raymond himself. It is a unique tool that breaks up and levels out dirt, making the sur-
face safer and less impactful on horses’ hooves. It has become the tool of choice for the National Finals Rodeo, as well as numerous other rodeo associations, farms and agricultural businesses. “The original unit, built almost 20 years ago, is still in use today in the Lucas family arena,” says Tammy.

Your Partner for Life New Holland Owner Mike McCrate said, “We were the ninth largest Cub Cadet dealer in North America last year.” Cub Cadet has more than 1,300 dealers across the country, and Tulsa New Holland has been ranked in the top 100 since 2000. When asked how he got into the “tractor business” Mike responded that he managed the parts department of a Lincoln-Mercury dealership in Alva, Oklahoma while in college, and when he graduated college in 1974, he was hired as parts manager at the New Holland company store in Perryton, Texas. Mike
worked for New Holland company 15 years at various locations and in various roles: parts manager, retail sales representative and retail store manager. Mike came to Tulsa in 1986 as store manager at Tulsa New Holland, and he bought the dealership from New Holland in 1989. “We’ve become somewhat of a ‘rare bear’ in the industry, in that we are still family-owned and operated and do all of our business out of one store,” said Mike. Two of his sons are part of the operation, and other employees think of themselves as part of the Tulsa New Holland family. Some have
continued from page 1 been employed by Mike for 10 to 20 years. He is known as a “down-to-earth guy” who respects and appreciates his employees and the successful business the team has built over the years. The respect is mutual. Kelly Umphrey is general manager of the dealership and came to Tulsa from Michigan in the early 1990s when his brother, who was working for Tulsa New Holland, told him how great Oklahoma was and that he should move here. He also told Kelly that he thought Mr. McCrate could find a place for him at the dealership. Kelly came to Tulsa without a job, and Mike did offer to
employ him for six to eight weeks to do odd jobs including sweeping the shop and painting used equipment. At the end of the “trial period,” he was offered full-time employment. He has served the company as parts department manager and salesman, and was promoted to general manager a little over a year ago. Other members of the outstanding Tulsa New Holland management team include Travis McCrate, service manager; John Asmus, parts manager; and Tim McCrate, sales specialist. Tulsa New Holland has an A+ rating with the Tulsa BBB.
Spring Clean Your Financial Life ing your closets and drawers, and removing items you no longer need or use. Why not take this time to do the same thing in your financial life? I’ve listed a few items below for your financial spring cleaning to-do list, including places for potential savings. Insurance: Look over home and auto policies. Not only do you want to make sure your current policy has you correctly covered since home values and personal needs change, but you should make sure your insurance company is charging you a fair premium based on other companies in the market. When shopping, make sure to mention any renovations, updates and claims that may affect your initial quote. Life happens, so when it does, make sure to update your life insurance policy. Any major life changes such as divorce, marriage, birth of children or death of a family member cause a need for change of beneficiary. Also, lifestyle changes might affect your premiums. Have you lost weight or quit smoking? Certain life changes may allow your insurance agent to lower your premiums. Time: 2-3 hours on the phone and a couple days to get quotes, new rate sheets. Savings: could be significant. Cost: zero out of pocket. Retirement Accounts: Many people choose to invest in their company’s 401k. Not only does it allow you to invest money for retirement, it helps by being pulled out pre-tax, essentially

lowering your taxable income. Sometimes we choose to move jobs and careers multiple times in our working lives, accumulating multiple 401k accounts, which can create numerous statements on a monthly basis. You can rollover your accounts into one account with your current employer (speak with HR about the logistics) or a self-directed IRA with a local investment company or bank. By simplifying your accounts into one, you can clean up your mail box and filing cabinet, as well as open up other investment choices. Time: 2-3 hours. Savings: limitless. Cost: minimal out of pocket, if any. Banking: Do you have multiple accounts at more than one bank? Are you set up with online banking, bill pay, mobile banking or other time-saving, money-tracking services? Having multiple bank accounts at various institutions can sometimes clutter our lives as well as take extra time to manage. Streamlining all your finances into one bank and setting up auto drafts for your monthly obligations, like car payments, mortgage payments and gym memberships will not only streamline your life, it may save money by avoiding late fees. Time: 1 hour on the phone, 2-3 hours to close old accounts, open new ones, transfer automatic deposits and withdrawals and set up bill pay. Savings: varies. Cost: none. Mortgage: If you choose to shop
Whether you’re mowing the yard, maintaining your fiveacre spread, or bailing hay, drop by Tulsa New Holland and meet the team. “Once you’ve given us a try,” says Mike, “we think we’ll be your partner for life.”

continued from page 1 homeowner’s policies as suggested above, you will need to contact your mortgage servicer and request an escrow adjustment/analysis. Adjusting your escrow account doesn’t necessarily save you money, but it could reduce your monthly payment. After the servicer adjusts for your new policy and any current coverage/underage, you might end up with some extra cash flow every month. Also, mortgage rates are currently low and refinancing might be an option to save money. In the most simplistic view of a refinance, you need to know two things: How much will you save monthly? How much will it cost? Divide the cost by the savings and determine how long it will take you to re-coup the cost. Time: 1 hour with lender, 30-45 days to close. Savings: unlimited. Cost: lender and title fees (+/-
$3,000 locally) Spending a little time to clean your financial life can potentially save you money and time, so get started with your spring cleaning! *Opinions expressed above are the personal opinions of Kenneth Wohl and meant for generic illustration purposes only.

Make Strides Toward a World Free of MS M Walk MS Tulsa builds new connections at new location.
By Christopher Davis “Multiple sclerosis is a disease that destroys connections. Walk MS builds connections,” says Sarah Flowers, development manager at the National Multiple Sclerosis Society – Oklahoma. On Saturday, May 2, the National MS Society hosts Walk MS at Tulsa Community College’s southeast campus. The event serves as a vehicle for fundraising and community support for those affected by MS. At its core, MS is an immunemediated disease involving the deterioration of nerve fibers. The damaged nerve fibers develop scar tissue (sclerosis), which disrupts communications in the central nervous system and produces a diverse range of symptoms, from numb, tingling or weakened limbs to blurred vision, slurred speech and trembling. In short, MS stops people from moving. In keeping with the theme of building new connections, Walk MS is a call to action: keep moving forward and together we can work to find a cure. “Walk MS is a great event that brings people together,” says Flowers. “For those living with MS, as well as loved ones who support them, it’s an opportunity to raise awareness and meet others who are fighting the disease.”
In previous years, Walk MS was held at Veterans Park. This year, the event has partnered with Tulsa Community College to establish a larger and more convenient site for participants and vendors. “We’re excited to bring Walk MS to TCC this year,” says Flowers. “The campus will allow room for the event to grow.” Last year, Walk MS brought about 900 participants. This year, Flowers expects to break 1,000. In the past, parking was a challenge for participants and vendors alike.
TCC’s southeast campus, located just off Highway 169 and 81st Street, offers an ideal setting for the event. The sprawling campus, which hosts a segment of the Mingo Valley Trail, provides plenty of space for a walking path to be marked for the event. Even better, there will be ample parking for everyone and easy access for friends and family to line up along the path to cheer on the participants. Walk MS will set up its main booths outside the VanTrease PACE auditorium (located on the east side of campus, facing Highway 169). In addition to on-site registration, attendees can
look forward to food and drink, as well as Blue Bell ice cream. There will also be activities for the kids, including inflatables and face painting. Also, MidFirst Bank is sponsoring a coin drive to help with fundraising. If $750 is raised at the event, then the bank will match the donations – so be sure to search the couch cushions, empty your pockets and gather up the change in your car’s ashtray! The event will also host Expo MS, which features booths from community and industry partners. Some of the organizations will offer information and resources for those affected by MS,
while others specialize in mobility technology. As attendees peruse the booths and collect information, they can enter for chances to win giveaways. Online registration is encouraged, and can be found through the NMSS website or by going to www.WalkMS.org and entering your zip code in the search bar. Once registered, be sure to save the link in your bookmarks. NMSS makes it easy to begin spreading the word and fundraising. Each participant has the ability to personalize their page with their own story and photos. Additionally, the website provides a wealth of resources related to MS – statistics, research and more. Walk MS begins at 9 a.m. with breakfast, last-minute registration and participant check-in. The walk begins at 10 am. Don’t miss your opportunity to be a part of the strides made toward a world free of MS. For more information, contact

You CAN Help Children A glamorous evening filled with fun and entertainment will benefit the Child Abuse Network at the CANdlelight Ball on April 25.
By Deanna Rebro An evening of glamour, fun and entertainment on April 25 will benefit a cause that has alarming, widespread and increasing statistics throughout the community. The Child Abuse Network (CAN) presents the 2015 CANdlelight Ball at the historic Mayo Hotel as a way to raise awareness and funds for children who are sexually, physically or emotionally abused. CAN, a charter member of the National Children’s Alliance, is the only nonprofit organization focused on child abuse investigation. At its Children’s Advocacy Center in Tulsa, children from newborn to 17 are provided with medical evaluations, forensic interviews, mental health services and case reviews. The entire atmosphere fosters a feeling of safety and comfort for the children and their families. Services are available upon referral 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Last year, CAN served over 2,500 children. They are currently averaging 10 children per day. A conservative estimate indicates one child in every classroom in every school in Tulsa is affected by some
form of child abuse. There is no socioeconomic boundary; child abuse is literally everywhere in the Tulsa community. The organization’s Tulsa model, Children’s Advocacy Center, stands out as the only branch in the state to house the entire team of multidisciplinary agencies to investigate child abuse and provide services under one roof. The 9,600-square-foot building houses offices for the Tulsa County District Attorney, the Tulsa Police Department, Tulsa County Department of Human Services – Child Welfare, OU-Tulsa School of Community Medicine, Pediatrics Medicine and others. Keeping all involved agencies together facilitates communication and expediency to help children at this critical point in their lives. Board President Adrienne Barnett serves on this year’s event committee that is led by Amanda McConnell. Adrienne knows first-hand why centralization is important. In 2008, the family law attorney was trying a case in Arkansas that involved abuse of a young teenage girl. Offices were
www.ValueNews.com
scattered. No one knew what the other participating agencies were doing. The child was lost in the system. During that time, Adrienne met Dr. Robert Block, a leading authority on child abuse pediatrics. Two years later, CAN asked her to join the efforts in the Tulsa office, where Dr. Block was practicing. “I am happy to be a part of this cause,” she says, “to help raise funds for these kids and to educate the community on how to stop child abuse.” The theme for this fourth annual black tie event is “Every child is a gem.” The sparkle of precious jewels and a candlelight ambience will be the setting for the gala that features a cocktail hour, red carpet photo opportunities, dinner in the Crystal Ballroom, a live auction, live Fund-a-Need and surprise entertainment. Auction items include sports and entertainment packages, fine dining and jewelry. An after-party begins at 9 p.m. with champagne, desserts and slow, rock and swing dancing to the music of Dave and the Wavetones, a nationally recognized 16-piece band that has performed for governors, senators and celebrities throughout the Southwest. “This entire venue allows us to increase awareness of child abuse in our community, tell people what we are doing to end the violence, and honor the sponsors who make our work and our services possible,” says Adrienne. Sponsorship levels range from $1,000 to $15,000. Major sponsors thus far include the H.A. and Mary K. Chapman Charitable
Board President Adrienne Barnett is joined by one of many comforting bears at the Children’s Advocacy Center. Trust, the George Kaiser Family Foundation, the Barnett Family Foundation, Hillcrest Health Care System, D & L Oil Tools, Global Health and the John Steele Zink Foundation. After-party tickets with optional black tie are available to the public for $75 each. Call (918) 624-0201 for availability of individual reservations for $250 each. The CAN website offers opportunities to donate or volunteer for those who cannot attend the ball.
