00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:09.640
Good morning, good morning, good
morning, and welcome, welcome, welcome.

2
00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:13.519
It's time now for our community connection. And joining me today is Sherry

3
00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:19.359
Wilton with the Martblesville Chamber of Commerce
Greater Martlesville Area Chamber of Commerce. If

4
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:25.120
we want to be specific, because
you number an area, big area there.

5
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:28.160
How are you doing today? Doing
good? Doing good? Looking forward

6
00:00:28.239 --> 00:00:31.519
to a new month. I am
it's going to be a busy month April,

7
00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:33.479
and no fool and you're going to
be busy. We are going to

8
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:37.039
be busy, and it's gonna be
warmer weather. It's finally for a change,

9
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:40.640
it'll stay warm. We get these
period we get I can't figure out

10
00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:46.560
if it's sprinter or wing. That's
good exactly. It's like we go from

11
00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:51.880
eighty to fifty and yeah, and
some days we go from freezing to eighty

12
00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:55.799
five in the same the same day. That's such a welcome to bartles Bell.

13
00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:58.960
But that only happens in the spring
and fall, the winter, in

14
00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:03.359
the and the I'm pretty pretty concert
yeah, pretty constant. Well we have

15
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:07.159
cooking well, let's see, we've
got lots. This next Friday, we

16
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:11.400
have partnered with the Young Professionals of
Bartlesville who fall under our umbrella, and

17
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:15.079
I'm real excited about this event.
It's the first it's an inaugural event for

18
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:19.599
emerging Stars under forty and they're going
to be honoring or we're going to be

19
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:26.359
honoring together ten different individuals in the
community who are under the age of forty,

20
00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:32.120
who are leaders in the community,
have given back to the community,

21
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:36.159
and it's just I'm real excited about
the event. It is. Yesterday she

22
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:38.719
said they had like ten tickets left, so it's it's a yeah, like

23
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:44.200
a I almost sold out event.
And I was really excited that the response

24
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:46.560
they got. Of course they put
it on you know with social media and

25
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:49.239
everything too, but you know,
I told them you're probably not gonna get

26
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:52.560
that many nominations. People just don't
seem to nominate, and by gosh,

27
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:57.400
they got I think it was over
sixty. And then they were sent some

28
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.640
paper, you know, form to
fill out and we got four nine of

29
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:05.840
them back. So the selection committee
had a really tough tough time. But

30
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:08.439
the goal was, you know,
I've wanted to do this for probably three

31
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:12.159
four five years, been rolling around
in my head. I wanted to do

32
00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:15.599
this because you know, at our
annual awards in Galen May. You know,

33
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:19.960
we owned just a few people,
and there's so many up and coming,

34
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:24.120
really strong younger folks in our community
and they're gonna be the ones taking

35
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:27.400
the helm, they're gonna be the
ones, you know, going to be

36
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.680
leading, and just wanted to,
you know, have a chance for them

37
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:35.240
to be honored. So there's ten
great candidates and there's probably well they were

38
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:38.599
all really good, but I mean
it got down to it was just really

39
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:42.840
hard on the selection committee. I
mean there was about six that we had

40
00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:45.199
to cut that we were all just
dying. It's like no, I mean

41
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:49.159
we only have ten. So anyhow, so that we're excited about that.

42
00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:53.319
That is next Friday night, and
just really excited to honor some folks.

43
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.400
And then April fourth is our next
business after ours always the first Thursday of

44
00:02:57.400 --> 00:03:00.000
the month, and it's gonna be
at Hillcrest Country Club. So that's why

45
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:01.879
a good one. They always have
great food, great drinks, and just

46
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:06.080
a really good time to connect with
some other businesses, meet some folks,

47
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:08.560
and so come out for that.
It's free for our members, or if

48
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:12.080
you want to just come as a
guest, you're more than welcome just to

49
00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:15.319
kind of come check it out and
see what the Chamber's about, talk to

50
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:19.400
some of us, and we'd love
to love to have you. And then

51
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:22.759
April tenth is our I don't know
how many years we've been doing this,

52
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:27.039
but it's a long time. It's
our Bartleswiel Day at the Capitol and we

53
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:30.800
runt a charter bus and we take
our leadership Bartlesville group as well as some

54
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:37.080
other chamber members down to the capital
and spend the day down there. We

55
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:39.479
have most of the top leadership.
Unfortunately Mett Panel, who's one of our

56
00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:43.360
favorite speakers, is out of town
that day, but we do have the

57
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:47.199
governor and just a lineup of some
of the top leadership coming in and they

58
00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:51.439
come to our group, they speak
to our group, we have lunch with

59
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:54.960
our legislators, and just this is
a really good day. So if anyone

60
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:59.159
is interested in that, we still
have some seats left on the bus.

61
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:00.919
And like I said, it's a
charter bus. We're not going down there

62
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:05.520
on a school bus. It's a
very nice, nice bus. Yes,

63
00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:10.719
it's it's great. We stop at
midway on the way there, and anyhow,

64
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:13.319
we have lunch while we're there,
and it's just a really good day,

65
00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:15.480
So if anyone is interested in that
once again, it can be found

66
00:04:15.480 --> 00:04:20.279
at Bartlesfield dot com can register for
that. It's sixty dollars and includes transportation

67
00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:25.879
and lunch and all the different things
that come with it. So and then

68
00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:30.319
in April seventeenth, seven days later, is our last Women of our Women

69
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:35.079
in Business luncheon for the year.
We kind of close it down starting in

70
00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:39.680
May for the summer, and then
we'll kick back up back in the fall.

71
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:42.680
But summer just just kind of kind
of a crazy time. But I'm

72
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:46.040
really excited about the topic. It's
Anna Erwin, who we've had before.

73
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:50.319
It's been several years, but she
is going to be talking on Boost your

74
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:58.959
Conversation IQ. And as you know, so many of us communicate via email,

75
00:04:59.639 --> 00:05:01.839
text, God help us with social
media, but you know, it

76
00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:05.000
seems like so much communication happens that
way, and really, you know,

77
00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:13.000
your relationships are really form more the
good relationships are formed with actual conversation,

78
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:16.319
face to face, talking to people, and so it's gonna be interactive,

79
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:18.879
it's going to be engaging. She's
a she's a good speaker, so we're

80
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:23.360
excited about that. And that is, like I said, April seventeenth.

81
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:29.560
That's at Hillcrest Country Club and it's
just a way for our women to get

82
00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:35.000
together and just make connections, meet
each other and then some professional development or

83
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:41.959
just some motivational type you know speakers. Last month was really interesting. She

84
00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:46.199
was really really good. It was
just so motivational. But so anyhow,

85
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:49.519
that is April seventeenth, So can
we take a quick break. I was

86
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:51.240
just going to ask you do we
need to take a break, because I

87
00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:56.319
keep going we do. We need
to make an announcement here, folks.

88
00:05:56.439 --> 00:06:00.399
It's been an accident, a five
car accident that Bison Road, no water

89
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:05.360
road. You're asked to avoid the
area for the time being. We'll let

90
00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:10.600
you know when it gets a little
better. So here we go once again.

91
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:15.360
It's a five car accident at Bison
and no water roads. Avoid the

92
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:19.439
area. We'll be back after these
words from Tall Grassmotors, Arnold Moore and

93
00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:24.959
knee Camp a funeral home, get
Real Ministries, and Kitty Westland Kitty College.

94
00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:30.000
Well at Arnold Moore and ne Camp
funeral Home. No, he's done

95
00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:32.879
a good job. After a funeral, I'll come in I say, guys,

96
00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:35.759
great job. We really hit that
out of the park. Today.

97
00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:40.839
The family was well pleased. And
that's the phrase right there, when a

98
00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:45.959
family member tells me, you made
this experience so much easier than I thought

99
00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:48.560
it was going to be. Thank
you. That is the high five moment

100
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:51.519
right there. And then six months
later you run into them in a store

101
00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:55.160
or a restaurant and they come up
to you and shake your hand, put

102
00:06:55.160 --> 00:06:58.120
their arm around your hug and say, this is our funeral director. He

103
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:01.120
helped us so much when dad,
he is a nice guy. His staff

104
00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:05.360
is so compassionate and so caring.
They did a great job. That is

105
00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:10.240
the ultimate experience. They've had time
to grieve a little bit and reflect on

106
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:13.680
what you've done, and they come
in and they're still on cloud nine because

107
00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:16.879
you help them pay tribute to someone
they really cared about. It'll be all

108
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:21.120
right. We'll walk through this together. Arnold Moore and Ni Camp Funeral sevent

109
00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:28.839
Dewey, Bartlesville. We'll walk through
this together. Is it time to start

110
00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:31.319
thinking about a new car? But
the thought of dealing with the large dealerships

111
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:35.519
is just too intimidating, too confusing. There is an easier way, tall

112
00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:41.000
Grass Motors. Tall Grass Motors doesn't
play all the confusing games a large dealerships

113
00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:46.240
play. Tall Grass Motors has continually
been voted Bartlesville's best used car dealer year

114
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:49.519
after year. Go by tall Grass

Bartlesville. Hey everyone, this is Pastoranda

117
00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:03.600
and Pastor Shiloh with Get Real Ministries, and this is your Get Real minute.

118
00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:07.120
Most everyone has heard the scripture John
three sixteen, For God so loved

119
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:09.319
the world that he gave his only
begotten son. Whosoever should believe in him

120
00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:13.920
should not perish, but have everlasting
lie. I believe that that scripture is

121
00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:16.360
really of no avail if not followed
up by the very next scripture John three

122
00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:20.160
seventeen. For God did not send
his son into the world to condemn the

123
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:24.680
world, but that the world through
him might be saved. And that is

124
00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:28.959
the foundational scripture by which get Real
Ministries was founded. Come worship Jesus with

car accident and the road is closed right

now until you can get that taken
care of, so please avoid the area.

141
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:43.919
We're back with our community connection Sherry
Wilt, and we were talking about

142
00:09:43.960 --> 00:09:48.759
chamber events coming. We got about
halfway through the month event we did Lot's

143
00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:56.080
going on in April, busy Spring. We do have another event that's designed

144
00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:58.360
for our members and it's a small
event by design, and it's called speed

145
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.960
Networking. I always say it's like
speed dating, not that I've ever speed

146
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:05.720
dated, but it's it's usually about
I don't know, fifteen to twenty,

147
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:09.960
but they go around and they all
introduce themselves to each other and by the

148
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.679
end of the night, everyone's laughing
and carrying on. And it's from four

149
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:16.600
to five, so it's just a
great way to endure day. But some

150
00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:20.240
really good connections. There's really fun
stories that have come out of that of

151
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:26.159
businesses that have connected with each other. And that's the whole point. And

152
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:30.000
I always tell people it's same thing
with business after hours. You may meet

153
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:33.759
someone at after hours and you may
not need the service or whatever it is

154
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:39.159
they do, but later on you
may you know, your your aunt needs

155
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:41.440
something or you know, and you
can oh, you know somebody, you

156
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:45.480
know, family member, whatever,
and you're like, oh, I need

157
00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:48.120
I met so and so you ought
to call you know them, and give

158
00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:50.799
them a shout and see what they
can do. So it's all about,

159
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:56.720
you know, making the connections and
trying to give our members who are looking

160
00:10:56.759 --> 00:11:00.960
for that those opportunities. So both
of those are free events, and like

161
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:03.720
I said, speed networking is that
from four to five, it's at the

162
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:07.039
chamber and it's just a fun way
to kind of end your day. And

163
00:11:07.080 --> 00:11:09.480
then we end the month with a
pretty big event and it is our classic

164
00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:13.600
golf tournament. There are always lots
of work, but this is out at

165
00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:18.440
Hillcrest Country Club, so it does
give folks who aren't necessarily a member or

166
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:22.600
chance to play at the club.
And I always tell people this is our

167
00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:28.919
only really true blatant fundraiser because everything
we do is not it's for there's a

168
00:11:28.919 --> 00:11:33.360
purpose, it meets a goal for
members, but this one pretty much.

169
00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:35.720
I mean, you can network on
the golf course, of course, but

170
00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:41.519
it's a fundraiser for our maintenance fund. And we are housed if you don't

171
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:46.840
realize, in the train depot downtown
and it was built in nineteen oh nine,

172
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:52.559
so anytime there are issues, maintenance
issues, they're never cheap to fix

173
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:56.279
or islam a major expense type thing. So and every year I think we're

174
00:11:56.279 --> 00:11:58.879
going to skate by and not have
something, and every year it's something.

175
00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:05.120
So anyhow, the funds raised from
that tournament go to support, you know,

176
00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:09.320
maintaining the land. People also don't
realize that that park that's right there

177
00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:11.639
with the gazebo the south south of
the chamber. You know, we maintain

178
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:16.120
all of that whole area from the
lower Christmas of the villa is from the

179
00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:20.000
south park all the way to that
parking lot and it's just a lot.

180
00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:22.120
And we want to keep the integrity
of the building and you know, really

181
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:24.840
keep up with the land. And
we like having the green space down there.

182
00:12:24.879 --> 00:12:28.840
People like to use it Farmer's Market. We let them use it all

183
00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:31.320
summer fall and it's just it's great, you know, for the community.

184
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:37.600
But it does take money to upkeep
all that. So anyhow, so that

185
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:41.240
is a tournament, a golf tournament
April twenty fifth, like I said,

186
00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:43.279
at Hillcress Country Club, and we
would love to have you play. You

187
00:12:43.279 --> 00:12:46.440
can play solo or you can get
your own team together. It's one twenty

188
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:50.799
five to play or five hundred and
four team. So we would love to

189
00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:54.080
have people come out for that and
you can find out more at the website,

190
00:12:54.279 --> 00:12:56.960
as all of these events are listed
on our website Bartlesville dot com.

191
00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:03.840
Also check out our website if you
are interested or curious about, you know,

192
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:05.559
mission of the Chamber. Some of
you know what we do, what

193
00:13:05.639 --> 00:13:11.879
our programs are. Just it's all
the informations on there. It's pretty pretty

194
00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:13.720
easy to use. I'm not a
real techy person and to me, I

195
00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:18.559
can navigate pretty well around it.
So and I really don't say there you

196
00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:22.480
go, So it's it's a it's
user friendly, I guess that's the corrector.

197
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:26.279
It's user friendly, but it gives
a lot of information and we would

198
00:13:26.320 --> 00:13:31.159
love to talk to anyone who's interested
in joining. We have right now seven

199
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:37.600
hundred and shoots. I had boardmanting
yesterday seven seventy two. I think members

200
00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:41.320
in the community some you know,
most of our businesses, but we do

201
00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:43.759
have some individuals. We have a
lot of nonprofits, so it's just a

202
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:48.399
variety of businesses. You know,
from the one man, one person shop

203
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:54.039
to you know, major corporations,
so it's just a real mix of businesses

204
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:58.840
and we all unite to try to
enhance quality of life, work on things

205
00:13:58.879 --> 00:14:03.720
like that. For Bartlesville, and
you do a great job. We're really

206
00:14:03.720 --> 00:14:07.159
blessed to be here and really blessed
to have your organization kind of kind of

207
00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:11.759
coordinating a lot of different things that
go along. How's that book doing,

208
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:15.120
The one you put together every year
comes out at the first of the year.

209
00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:18.320
You've got an elect I imagine a
lot of them went out. Oh

210
00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:20.559
yeah, we did deliver our community
as a twenty twenty four community guide,

211
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:24.600
and yes we have some. I
mean we print purposely so that we can

212
00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:31.159
give them out throughout the year.
They're designed specifically for newcomers to the community,

213
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:35.200
and it's a great selling piece for
the community. So I always encourage

214
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:37.039
if you have anyone, you know, friend, family that's thinking about moving

215
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:41.559
here or has moved here it stop
by the chamber and get one. They're

216
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:43.240
free. It's one hundred and twenty
I think it's a hundred and twenty page

217
00:14:45.080 --> 00:14:48.039
book. Then it's full color.
But it gives all sorts of information about

218
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:54.840
Bartlesville. I mean, it's very
comprehensive, and you know, it's really

219
00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:58.480
good books, So you got to
see it to really appreciate it. It's

220
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:03.799
a mixture of the old fashioned YELP
pages with the nice glossy pictures about everything

221
00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:07.279
that's going on maps and you know
where to find, how to get to

222
00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:11.879
and all that. And when with
all these folks coming in from Blue Whale,

223
00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:16.720
ABB and the new electric company it's
Lincoln, Lincoln, it's coming into

224
00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:18.759
town too. I imagine a few
of those have gone elsewhere. Yes,

225
00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:24.759
we're excited to get some some new
folks in town. And the expansions that

226
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:28.480
are going on, the ABB expansion, just there's some good things happening.

227
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:31.960
So it's a good time to good
time to be in Bartlesville. And just

228
00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:35.679
remember, folks, if you were
listening long distance today online and you're trying

229
00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:41.960
to get a fix on what Bartlesville
is all about with the chamber, Christmas

230
00:15:41.000 --> 00:15:45.919
in the vill is pretty dark cool, thank you. I just signed the

231
00:15:45.919 --> 00:15:48.639
contract for next year, so well, a couple of weeks ago, before

232
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:52.320
spring break. I signed it and
sent it off, So we're locked in

233
00:15:52.360 --> 00:15:54.919
for this coming year. You don't
let anything get passion well, you know,

234
00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.080
I sat on that one for a
while. But we're opening earlier,

235
00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:00.399
so of course the price went up, so I was like, oh,

236
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:04.559
this is killing me. But we're
going to open November weekends, not November

237
00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:10.679
Thanksgiving weekend, on that Saturday after
Thanksgiving. So yeah, we're going to

238
00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:14.919
open a little bit earlier and give
people a little bit more time and just

239
00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:17.919
we're curious to try that. So
all right, we'll see how that flies.

240
00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:18.720
Yeah, I think it'll be good. Actually, all right, he

241
00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:22.000
surey. Thank you for being here
as always, absolutely we appreciate y'all.

242
00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:26.320
Have a great holiday weekend you too. Happy Easter, al right, Happy

243
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:29.440
Easter eggs everybody. We've got more
coming up right here on K one.

244
00:16:29.559 --> 00:16:30.480
I have diabetes.
