Hello
there
and
welcome
once
again
to
the
mayor's
magazine,
I'm
Mick
Cornett,
the
mayor
of
Oklahoma
City,
glad
you're
with
us.
This
is
our
show
for
july
2015
we're
going
to
start
off
learning
more
about
what
arts,
council
okc
is
doing
for
the
young
people
in
Oklahoma
and
introducing
them
to
the
arts.
Christina
Foss
is
here
she's
the
director
of
communications
thanks
for
joining
us.
Thank.
B
A
Pays
you
Favreau
is
also
here
she's
a
volunteer
on
the
Leadership
Council,
thanks
for
coming
by.
Let's,
let's
learn
more
about
this.
First
of
all,
let's
start
with
the
basic
question:
why
do
we
have
to
get
involved
on
the
outside?
Why
aren't
the
arts
taught
in
the
school
systems
on
a
on
a
daily
basis
or
a
weekly
basis,
like
they
used
to
be
sure.
B
Well,
a
lot
of
that
has
to
do
with
budget
cuts.
When
that
happens,
and
you
know,
public
schools
often
cut
arts
first,
and
so
you
know
one
of
our
main
goals
with
all
excess
arts
we
serve
20,000
and
people
of
all
ages
and
through
Central
Oklahoma
is
to
put
some
of
those
teaching
artists
back
into
schools
during.
C
B
School
hours
and
out
of
school
hours
and
T
will
be
able
to
give
kids
a
positive
environment
to
be
able
to
experience
arts
education,
and
we
tend
to
focus
on
at-risk
schools.
And
you
know,
schools
that
do
have
those
budget
cuts
to
the
arts
first
and
where
these
kids
might
not
get
to
experience.
The
Arts
and.
D
Role
is
really
to
advocate
for
a
lot
of
not
only
the
kids
that
are
not
getting
opportunities
to
get
to
experience
the
arts,
but
really
this
the
community
as
a
whole.
These
families
that
they
belong
to-
and
you
know
this
month-
is
national
and
make
a
difference
in
a
child's
life,
and
so
one
big
thing
that
we're
really
pushing
right
now
on
the
leadership
team
is
really
trying
to
get
some
donations
and
generate
some
funds
that
we're
able
to
support
a
lot
of
what
these
kids
are
doing
in
these
programs
within
these
in
schools.
D
We
do
several
things
within:
ok,
CPS,
millwood,
public
schools
and
just
fifteen
dollars
alone
can
support
supplies
throughout
a
whole
semester,
so
really
getting
that
out
there
and
trying
to
be
the
voice
for
not
only
these
families
and
kids,
but
just
anybody
in
the
community
that
really
this
believes
in
the
arts
and
the
humanities
and
spreading
that
throughout
the
community.
Well,.
A
D
Think
the
main
interest
is
just
getting
students,
children,
families,
this
the
exposure
to
it,
understanding
the
different
varieties
of
art,
whether
it
be
dance,
visual
art
components
on
creative.
What
writing
and
getting
that
exposure
I'm
expanding
their
cultural
understanding
about
the
arts
and
where
it
may
bleed
into
what
they
they
may
see
on
the
regular
basis
and
then
giving
them
access
to
the
global
society
that
they
may
not
have
access
to
on
the
regular
basis.
So
Christine.
B
They
get
to
learn
the
music
business
and
by
then
of
the
semester
you
know
they're
playing
in
a
band
together
and
it
you
know
it's
just
a
really
fantastic
outlet
for
these
children
and
and
as
paigey
was
saying,
you
know
we're
really
trying
to
bring
awareness
to
this.
This
program
that
we
have
that
we've
been
doing
for
30
years
and
if
anyone's
interested
in
donating
our
website
is
arts,
council,
okc,
calm,
and
then
you
do
/
arts
in
school
and
that's
where
you
go
I.
B
Well
and
as
you
probably
know,
Arts
Council
Oklahoma
City
puts
on
Festival
of
the
Arts
every
year,
and
so
we
that's
our
one
event
that
does
bring
in
some
money.
All
of
our
other
events
are
free
and
gifts
to
the
community
and
and
while
that's
a
free
event
as
well,
we
do
get
some
money
from
the
people
that
attend,
and
so
you
know
we
get
money
from
that
event.
B
But
then
we
also
have
our
corporate
sponsors,
and
then
we
have
individual
sponsors
and
then,
with
all
excess
arts,
we
have
a
lot
of
collaboration,
which
is
something
we
really
value
with
that,
and
so
we
partner
with
places
like
the
Metropolitan
library
for
some
some
free
summer
programming,
we're
doing
there
and
and
then
also
Oklahoma,
City,
Parks
and
Rec.
We
put
arts
and
some
of
the
summer
day
camps
there,
and
so
those
collaborations
also
can
provide
funds
about.
B
A
D
And
you
know,
one
of
my
roles
being
in
the
leadership
team
is
actually
going
into
these
programs
and
evaluating
observing
these
kids
hands-on.
Actually
doing
some
of
these
activities,
I
got
to
go
to
a
couple
of
art,
exhibits
that
these
kids
have
actually
created
their
own
art
pieces
and
able
to
display
them
in
an
actual
gallery,
and
so
you
see
them
come
alive.
You
see
them
get
to
experience.
D
Things
like
christina
was
saying
that
they
wouldn't
otherwise
get
to
see
so
there
it's
an
outlet
for
them
to
not
only
maybe
see
that
they
can
actually
make
it
a
life,
a
life
goal
or
something
that
they
can
professionally
do.
But
this
expression,
you
know
a
lot
of
these
kids,
come
from
underserved
communities,
very
low
income
families,
and
so
that's
a
big
component
of
expression
allowing
them
to
you
know,
maybe
not
having
the
the
place
at
home
to
talk
about
some
of
these
deep
emotions
they
may
have.
D
But
the
having
these
arts
and
artists
come
into
these
schools
gives
them
the
opportunity
to
express
themselves
and
maybe
drum
up
some
feelings
that
they
wouldn't
to
display,
but
in
a
healthy
way,
and
that's
the
things
that
I've
gotten
to
see
and
observe
and
having
that
hands-on
activities
that
allow
them
to
do
that
is
so
important.
This
is
in
this
day
and
age,
and
especially
for
that
particular
community.
Well,.
A
B
B
F
That
dog
has
a
thirsty
looking
as
I
did
you
know
that
it's
really
not
that
hard
to
save
water
like
here
in
the
sink,
don't
make
me
run
too
much
good.
I'm
somebody
shut
me
on
this
is
my
kind
of
party,
a
full
house.
Let's
roll
hey
we're
in
a
drought,
which
means
I'm
kind
of
a
big
deal.
So
save
me
really
me.
A
Energy
is
a
soccer
team
or
for
those
of
you
who
may
have
been
born
in
another
country,
football
team,
you're
directing
the
city
and
playing
really
really
well
with
the
winning
record
here
in
the
month
of
July,
and
they
have
games
throughout
the
month
of
August.
So
we
thought
we'd
have
Jeff
on
just
to
kind
of
remind
people
that
it's
taking
place
out
of
taft
stadium
and
that
the
crowds
have
been
very
enthusiastic
for
you,
guys
yeah.
G
They
have
we've
got
soccer
is
a
very
passionate
smord
and
if
you
followed
soccer
across
really,
you
know
across
all
the
world.
It's
the
fan
base
is
very
loyal
and
and
passionate,
and
our
fan
base
is
really
starting
to
take
that
soccer,
passion
and
and
I've
really
bought
into
what
we're
trying
to
accomplish
with
the
energy
and
the.
A
G
Our
first
signing
in
2014
was
Michael
Thomas,
our
captain,
and
he
had
Sporting,
KC
and
I
believe
Toronto,
MLS
experience
and,
and
so
coach
nielsen
wanted
to
use
him
to
build
a
team
around.
We
have
several
players
that
have
played
in
MLS
that
are
currently
in
our
roster.
Some
of
them
are
players.
Are
we
found
in
the
Danish
national
league
and
from
Cameroon
and
some
other
places
around
the
world
and
we're
we're
allowed
to
have
seven
internationals
and
on
our
squad
of
18
to
20,
and
so
we've
got
a
really
good
mix.
G
A
A
G
A
G
Very
fortunate,
Jimmy
Nielsen
is
when
he
retired
he
was
the
captain
and
winning
goal
tender
for
the
mls
cup
for
Sporting
Kansas
City
in
2013.
He
retired
a
couple
days
later,
and
we
hired
him
a
few
days
later
and
he
is
known
all
around
the
world
played
on
in
Europe
and
came
here
and
made
an
immediate
impact
and
he
is
I've
seen
a
lot
of
coaches
and
a
lot
of
players
and
my
my
career
in
sports,
and
he
is
he's
a
genuine
guy
and
I.
G
A
G
We
have
worked
with
the
Oklahoma
Soccer
Association,
so
we
when
we
first
started,
we
worked
with
everybody.
You
know:
there's
clubs,
there's
youth
their
schools
really
going
out
supporting
their
coaching
education,
supporting
their
development
and
their
training
taking
practices
to
all
over
the
Metro
we've
been
in
Norman
we've
been
in
Edmond,
we've
been
at
Taff
we've.
You
know
free
to
the
free
to
the
teams
in
the
public
to
come,
see
the
pros.
G
It
is,
and
we're
we're
fields
and
futures
are
really
focused
in
around
tap.
So
you
know,
you've
got
the
maps
program
plus
what
we
did
and
on
top
of
that
Northwest
Klassen
and
Taff
middle
school,
all
their
fields
are
getting
completely
renovated,
so
that
may
twenty
third
corridor
in
terms
of
the
school
district
and
Taft
is
really
getting
overhaul
and
we're
very
excited
about
that.
And
hopefully
it
will
lead
to
some
continual
change
in
that
part
of
the
town.
If.
G
Know
it's
a
great
it's
a
family-friendly
atmosphere.
Taft
there's
not
a
bad
seat
in
the
house.
We
have
tickets
that
start
at
ten
dollars,
so
it's
very
family,
affordable
and
you
know
just
some
great
action.
You
know
one
of
the
things
that,
when,
as
I
kind
of
got
involved
with
energy
I
couldn't
believe,
but
we've
got
over
70,000
adults
playing
soccer
in
the
Metro.
We've
got
over
30,000.
So
you
know
it's
really
great
to
see.
G
Kids
and
families
come
out
and
just
enjoy
very,
very
good
soccer
I
mean
we've
been
the
top
quarter
of
the
league,
all
season
and
hopefully
we'll
make
the
playoffs.
And
if
we
continue
label
go
we'll,
have
a
home
playoff
game
which
would
be
great
to
our
first
season
and
to
have
to
make
that
happen.
So
it
will
last
the
rest
of
the
summer.
It
will
we've
got
games
in
July
and
August
and
our
last
home
games
at
September's.
G
A
Well,
your
players
are
wonderful
ambassadors
and
I
know
our
young
people.
You
know,
need
all
the
role
models
they
can
get.
So
thanks
for
accomplishing
that
part
of
the
gold
as
well
games
all
summer
long
at
Taft
Stadium,
the
Oklahoma
City
energy
will
be
back
with
more
of
the
mayor's
magazine
right
after
this.
C
A
Welcome
back
to
the
mayor's
magazine,
we're
going
to
talk
to
Kaitlyn
butts
in
this
segment.
Kaitlyn
is
a
young
singer-songwriter.
Welcome
to
the
mayor's
magazine.
You
are
becoming
more
and
more
well-known
young
lady.
Let
me
hold
up
a
couple
of
things.
First
of
all,
you
were
on
the
cover
of
the
latest
edition
of
territory,
and
this
has
been
out
for
a
few
days
now,
but
you
may
see
this
around
town
and
wonder
who
that
young
lady
is
there
holding
the
guitar
and
you're.
Also
your
new
CD
is
out
yeah.
E
Grew
up
in
Tulsa
went
to
union
I've
been
seeing
my
whole
life
and
it
when
it
came
to
the
time
to
decide
what
college
I
wanted
to
go
to.
I
got
a
really
small
scholarship,
okay,
see
him
and
that
just
kind
of
it's
something
that
I've
always
done
is
sing
and
dance
and
I
stance,
but
I
don't
dance
anymore.
Only
late
at
night,
ACM.
E
E
E
E
A
E
A
E
A
E
Called
wild
rose
and
I
wrote
it
because
I
was
taking
a
drive
one
day
and
Edmund
and
I
saw
this
group
of
roses.
Just
kind
of
growing
up
this
barbed
wire
fence
and
I
thought
that
that
was
really
cool
and
no
one
planted
them
there.
No
one
was
watering
them,
but
some
like
they
were
growing
and
they're
beautiful
right
there
and
so
I
wrote
this
song
about
a
girl
wanting
to
leave
the
place
where
she's
at
and
the
boys
wanted
her
to
stay
home
because
she
can
bloom
wherever
she's
planted.
A
E
A
A
F
E
A
E
One
woman
that
I
really
looked
up
to
was
Loretta
Lynn
and
she
did
play
guitar
I'm
growing
up
by
the
reason
why
I
picked
up
the
guitar
was
I
mean
I
had
grown
up,
seeing
to
attract
my
whole
life
and
I
got
to
the
point
where
I
was
too
old
for
it,
and
I
grew
up.
Listening
to
Dixie,
Chicks
and
Miranda
Lambert
had
started
to
come
about,
I
mean
they're
all
women
who
were
very
good
at
their
respected
instruments,
and
that
was
something
that
I
looked
up
to
and
I
was
like.
That's
a
girl.
E
A
H
Did
you
know
that
the
arts
make
a
significant
impact
on
education,
the
economy
and
our
quality
of
life
in
Oklahoma,
providing
more
than
10,000
jobs,
statewide
filtering
more
than
314
million
dollars
into
our
economy?
Yes,
the
arts
create
all
kinds
of
beautiful
things
and
making
Oklahoma
an
even
better
place
to
live.
Is
the
most
beautiful
thing
of
all
it
doesn't
take
a
big
donation
to
make
big
things
happen,
support
allied
arts
today,
a
little
give
is
all
it
takes.
I
I
When
she
was
young,
they
called
her
wild
bros.
The
ladies
in
the
town
turn
up
their
nose.
The
boys
all
loved
her
and
knows
she
will
never
be
tied
down.
She
said
she
was
getting
out
of
the
first
chance.
She
had
she
taken
I,
don't
know
when
I
don't
know
how,
but
I
know
sure
that
I'll
make
it
so
on
the
day
that
she
she
turned
18.
She
bought
a
ticket
for
the
Greyhound
bus.
He
looked
up
from
his
cowboy
hat
and
said
Oh
baby.
What
about
us?
I
I
Well,
she
got
on
the
bus
that
I
just
can't
stay.
She
didn't
look
back
as
they
pulled
away,
but
the
humming
of
the
tires
couldn't
drown
out
the
word
she
heard
him
say
and
there
beside
the
road
she's,
so
wild
rosenblum
right
where
God
it
planted
it
on
an
old
rusty,
barbed
wire
fence
and
also
it
all
made
sense
where
they
said
baby.
You
can
bloom,
no
matter
where
you
are,
you
don't
have
to
live
in
sky,
to
be
a
star.
You
don't
have
to
be
the
Sun
to
shine
baby.
Just
be
my.
I
Well,
the
bus
pulled
away
with
an
empty
seat,
made
a
call
saying
baby
come
and
get
me.
They
drove
all
through
the
night
and
we're
home
to
see
it.
Oklahoma
sunrise
sitting
on
the
porch
late
in
night,
watching
their
babies
chasing
fireflies
a
little
one,
looks
up
at
sky
and
says
I
wanna
be
a
star
and
they
said
baby.
You
can't
blue
matter
where
you
are,
