Good morning, good morning, good morning, and welcome, welcome, welcome.
It's time now for our community connection right here on K one, the
one you trust, and we're talking with the Bartlesville Regional United Wade today.
How you doing. We got Katie's On and Julia Baron in with us here
today. First of all, Katie, welcome back. Thank you. It's
great to be back in the studio and thanks for bringing the new Julia.
Yeah, so Lisa's on vacation a bles, sir, So we brought Julia,
who is our summer intern. This is her second year with us,
and we're very excited that she's back. I'm excited to be here. Well,
great, where do you study? So I'm at Oklahoma State. I'll
be a junior in the fall and I'm majoring in business management with the concentration
in nonprofit management. So happy to be happy to be OSU. Great.
Now, we've got a bigger bet that's coming up here, and I'm gonna
just say it right here. You know the way does you go bigger you
go? Now? Yeah, this year we're going big for sure. Now.
We used to call this a Pace Center, but it's called United in
Giving. But for the folks who aren't familiar with it, tell us a
little bit about what it is. So this is our third year of doing
this, and we are mixing things up a little bit. So this event
has always kind of been our pacesetter event. We've had all of our sponsors
in the same room, We've had our companies that do their internal campaigns.
But this year we are we are having this be our pride and true kickoff,
So we are announcing our goal at the events and we are kicking off
our annual campaign. So you're not gonna wait to the football game run out
there and you'll blow up all these you know things. No, we're gonna
mix it up a little bit. We do have some surprise with this one
with our kickoff and announcing the goal, so I'm not going to get into
that. But Uniting Giving it's going to be great. It's twenty dollars for
a ticket that gets you a lunch catered by Shorties. Chris is going to
do some really good food for this event. But you can purchase this online
at Bartlesville UW dot org. But we're also going to be selling these really
cool T shirts and you yeah, and you can see on the video on
TV. We are wearing our T shirts today, so you can buy those.
We're also going to have some really cool color changing mugs that we'll be
able to sell. Nice. Yeah, So we've got some really cool things
played for United and Giving and we'll also have our online auction there too.
All right, once again, this is August first, from eleven thirty am
to one pm. It's twenty dollars and you just go to Bartlesville UW dot
org. Now that we've got people kind of locked in here, let's pull
the trigger. Why do we need this auction because it looks just too cool?
Yeah, So all of the money that is raised from our online auction,
United and Giving, our annual campaign, goes to fund over thirty programs
from fifteen different partner agencies across the nowada O age in Washington Counties. I'll
let Julia kind of talk about that. Let's do that the feeling you had
to do a lot of the first work. Yes, So Katie and I've
kind of been double teaming the online auction. We're getting super excited. We
have a lot of really cool items donated. I think we have over over
fifteen baskets are around that amount they're going to be super cool. Thanks.
That'll appeal to everyone in the community. So I would definitely say get excited,
show up, and get ready to bid on some cool baskets. All
right, now, I'm seeing some things here. You got something from Always
Shoes, So I wonder where that camp men's basketball tickets? Yeah, very
good. We got a nice little trip to Austin, Texas. Yes,
a girls' weekend trip to a husket. Geez. There couldn't be any shopping
involved there none. We've got some really great ones and we have really seen
the community kind of come together. We've hit up a lot of local businesses
and they have been more than generous with donating items for this. So we're
really excited to kind of put all these things together and have a really awesome
online auction. Yeah. Now, we've already got some of the folks kind
of hooked in already on what we're doing here at the auction. But can
we go someplace like online? I guess a couple of different places to find
this, right, Yeah. So we will have all of the items in
person at United in Giving, so you can bid there, but we'll also
have a separate website set up that you can bid online. The auction will
run from July twenty ninth to August thirteenth, so that gives you plenty of
time to get online, check out all of the items, be able to
kind of bid. You can kind of even sneak some of those ninja bids
in last minute. But it's gonna be a really great thing. We'll have
all the information posted to our website and our social media when it gets a
little bit closer. Did you wear out a couple of pairs of shoes running
around try to get all this stuff? We actually just all all of us
at United Way just went around and asked for some donations from different businesses in
the community, and honestly, everyone has been so gracious towards us and just
helped us out with this. You guys are like the best friends in the
community. Hopefully, Well we are. Yeah, we have like what fourteen
partner agencies that we assist, so we make sure that nobody in our footprint
goes through the cracks. Yes, and we're super excited because this is the
first year that Ray of Hope has become one of our partner agencies. So
yeah, and now we're at fifteen. We're excited to bring them on.
Ronda and her team over there are just phenomenal. H So we're so excited
that they are a partner agency. Well, I'll tell you what, We're
going to take a quick break. We'll come back. We'll let folks know
a little bit more about United Giving in the auction, but we're also going
to talk about the gear up too. Okay, all right, we'll be

Funeral Home in Tawgrass Motors over most of this very same station. Hey,
everyone, this is Pastorando and Pastor Shiloh with Get Real Ministries and this is
your Get Real minute. Most everyone has heard the scripture John three sixteen.
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son. Who's
ever should believe in him should not perish, but have everlasting night. I
believe that that scripture is really of no avail if not followed up by the
very next scripture John three seventeen. For God did not send his son into
the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be
saved. And that is the foundational scripture. By which get Real Ministries was
founded. Come Worship Jesus with Us Sunday's ten thirty am, Wednesday six thirty

that up a little bit. We still have the europe for kickoff, so
yes, plain it for me. So again we this year we're doing things
a little bit different. We're gonna go a little bit bigger this year,
and we are hopefully going to raise even more money this year, and the
need is stronger in the community, so we're pulling out all this stuff.
So we're going to announce our goal at United in Giving, but we're also
going to have a kickoff week, So that's going to run August fifth through
ninth, and it's going to be a week full of community related events that
it's going to really kind of kick off that annual campaign. So August fifth,
Lisa and our campaign chair, we'll be here in the radio with you,
Tom, And then August sixth, we are going to do a thank
you event for our first responders. We're still kind of planning what that looks
like. And then August seventh, we are going to have a pie in
the Face contest and we've got some really awesome people lined up for that.
We've got Jamie Imamoto with Conico Phillips, Matt Epperson from Phillip sixty six,
We've got Chris Batchelder, David Nicol from Ourvest, and Misty Wishaw. How
much does it cost for a pie? So it's going to be a dollar
a vote, So we're hoping that these will be some you don't get that.
No, we do have a pie in the Face sponsor. Yeah,
so if you really want to be the one to kind of, you know,
slam the pie and the taste, yeah, we do have some opportunities
for that. Yeah. So it's going to be really cool. The whole
week is going to be really awesome, and then we'll end it with a
walk around downtown and then a happy hour at Palace Rooms. Well, that'd
be great. I was thinking you'd have like a pie catapult, you know,
that would be cool. Yeah, but I didn't know. Yeah,
well, right now, Lisa is the one who's lined up to kind of,
you know, do the pie to the face of the winner. But
there's an opportunity. So if you are listening to this and you're like,

looks now. No, we're very excited about it and the people who are
going to be involved in that. They're they're pretty excited to see how much
money we can raise from it. I bet they are. Yeah, and
you got a great lineup. Yeah, I really think that you got a
nice all star cast. Yes, yeah, so I don't think those dollars
are going to be in the mini area. I think you're going to probably
be in the thousands here before, so fingers crossed, that's what they're Yeah,
