Speaker 1: Good money, good money, Good morning, Welcome, Welcome Ango. It's
Speaker 1: time down for our community connection right here on Kay one,
Speaker 1: the one you trust. Seems like we've got a lot
Speaker 1: of friends in Dewey. Today. We have Lori Tabla Herron,
Speaker 1: and we have a busy, busy agenda today. We're gonna
Speaker 1: first to start off with parks. Why don't we do that?
Speaker 2: I think so because I'll be leaving from here straight
Speaker 2: to Tulsa with the ladies.
Speaker 3: In one car. It's going to be crazy.
Speaker 2: But we're heading down to check out some of the
Speaker 2: eighty a parks down in Tulsa. Check out just what
Speaker 2: they have, you know, their their equipment and how it's installed,
Speaker 2: and just get an idea of a visual, tangible look
Speaker 2: of the.
Speaker 1: Parks and kind of maybe see what we can use
Speaker 1: right here. Bring those ideas.
Speaker 2: Back home and bring it more, you know, to fruition
Speaker 2: in our head than to see it just on a
Speaker 2: piece of paper.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, that'd be great. See how it functions. That's awesome.
Speaker 3: So that is what I'm starting off today. But we
Speaker 3: have to get to that traffic light.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, D seventy five, I've hearing about this right
Speaker 1: me too, I bet you have, so we do have that.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately it was taken out and so it is going
Speaker 2: to be a lengthy process to fix. Mister Trees is
Speaker 2: already dealing with the insurance UH, the traffic light company,
Speaker 2: and then we also have the relocation of electricity across
Speaker 2: the road correct and then we also have the next
Speaker 2: stop dealing with O DOT.
Speaker 3: So there's a lot.
Speaker 2: Of factors that deal with the you know, the public works,
Speaker 2: and then mister Trees have to factor in to relocating
Speaker 2: electricity and then just put in, you know, a whole
Speaker 2: new system up now.
Speaker 1: This was covered in the city council meeting and I
Speaker 1: remember reading the news story on it and it seemed
Speaker 1: to me like, yeah, there's going to be some hoops.
Speaker 1: There's going to be maybe a little time of uncomfortability
Speaker 1: but just a little bit. But band together, play as
Speaker 1: a team, and it'll all come through before you know it.
Speaker 2: Patience goes a long way, it does, and so but
Speaker 2: it will still remain before you know, a stop. That's
Speaker 2: four ways he said that, like turning into the red
Speaker 2: flashing light. So it will remain a stop in all
Speaker 2: directions still no matter what. But appreciate all the patients
Speaker 2: and they're doing the best that they can as fast
Speaker 2: as they can with this kind of huge issue.
Speaker 1: Now you got to remember this is not just all
Speaker 1: local hands involved.
Speaker 3: There's so many.
Speaker 1: You got the state, you got the assurance, you got
Speaker 1: every a lot of.
Speaker 3: Cooks in this kitchen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, be patient.
Speaker 3: Right, So we also have big news. We have O'Reilly's
Speaker 3: in town. You don't have to leave town now to
Speaker 3: go to the autopart store. So that's pretty cool.
Speaker 2: I believe the opening day will be the twenty ninth,
Speaker 2: but we'll make sure that and we'll put out a
Speaker 2: post and I'm sure O'Reilly's will put out everything. But
Speaker 2: that is the date that I'm told, and I'm going
Speaker 2: to stand in line be the first one there.
Speaker 1: You go, get your jocket. Where are they going to
Speaker 1: put the excuse me us?
Speaker 2: Right next door to the south side Dollar General? Okay,
Speaker 2: right next to the new traffic light. When we get
Speaker 2: it in, so go the other way into town. So
Speaker 2: want to deal with that issue. But that's gonna be
Speaker 2: pretty cool, pretty lucrative for our town, especially just you know,
Speaker 2: people caney right there.
Speaker 3: If they don't have any where they have, sure it'll
Speaker 3: it's gonna be really cool.
Speaker 2: They've already got to sign up, they've already got the
Speaker 2: it's it's looking trick pretty cool.
Speaker 3: Come on, what right next to the far away empowering everybody?
Speaker 1: You can just come on, go pay and get.

Speaker 2: a bathroom before, but the public Works is working on
Speaker 2: that and also mister Trees, so it's.
Speaker 3: Looking pretty cool.
Speaker 1: I'm going to do something here. Maybe maybe the guys
Speaker 1: and gals and public Works don't know I'm going to
Speaker 1: do it. They do a lot of work, They do
Speaker 1: a lot of things that a lot of us don't
Speaker 1: really know, and they really like to keep there. They
Speaker 1: just like to be under the radar.
Speaker 3: They do, but they get a lot of flak.
Speaker 1: They're the ones taking care of business. Did you know
Speaker 1: that they.
Speaker 3: Did grades I do. I do.
Speaker 1: A lot of people didn't know that.
Speaker 2: And when I found that out, I brought a lot
Speaker 2: of a lot of emotion.
Speaker 3: You know, they didn't know that.
Speaker 2: Just are our gentlemen and all municipalities. They're the ones
Speaker 2: that take care of our loved ones when they're passing,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 3: So that's pretty pretty deep, pretty deep.
Speaker 2: And then here they are getting flack for not putting
Speaker 2: in a traffic light quick enough.
Speaker 1: It's out of their control, correct.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: I got to meet a few your crews when we
Speaker 1: had the water main problem in the park. You want
Speaker 1: to talk about some hard workers. You know, you got
Speaker 1: to dig pretty darn hard, pretty darn fast, and pretty
Speaker 1: dark and accurate to get a pretty good sized hole
Speaker 1: down so you don't break anything even further. And they
Speaker 1: were going right at it, and they weren't taking no
Speaker 1: for an hands. I just said, hi, guys, busy. Fortunately
Speaker 1: you were there to do the talking. But they were.
Speaker 1: They were great. They were really diligent and you know,
Speaker 1: just just hard working soul.
Speaker 3: They are. The whole city is a pretty fine working machine.
Speaker 1: I just want to give a little you know, they
Speaker 1: can sit there and say oh shucks if they want to,
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna I've gotta tell them thanks.
Speaker 3: Oh I'm sure I'll hear.
Speaker 1: You know they're good folks, all right, So we got
Speaker 1: a lot going on, not going on. Now, you're doing
Speaker 1: this thing with the parks with your friends at Simple
Speaker 1: Simon's pizzas. I understand those are going on.
Speaker 3: Yes, how could I forget that?
Speaker 2: So once a month, Miss Randy, is a dedicating portion
Speaker 2: of the sales to the friends of doing parks. And
Speaker 2: so our last one was on March fourth, and it
Speaker 2: was Marti Grathmed and it went pretty well. And so
