Hello,
there
welcome
once
again
to
the
mayor's
magazine,
I'm
Mick
Cornett,
the
mayor
of
Oklahoma
City,
and
this
is
our
show
for
july
2013
in
this
first
segment,
we're
going
to
learn
more
about
the
Oklahoma
City
Museum
of
Art,
which
is
located
just
across
the
street
from
City
Hall,
and
so
the
short
walk
over
today
was
accomplished
by
Allison
taming
Allison.
Welcome.
Thank.
B
A
B
A
This
time
of
year,
especially
because
people
are
welcoming
in
friends
and
family
from
around
the
country-
and
they
might
be
thinking
well
they've,
seen
bricktown-
you
know
maybe
they've
been
to
you-
know
the
Western
Heritage
Center,
maybe
they've
not
been
to
the
Oklahoma
City
Museum
of
Art,
and
it
is
definitely
worth
worth
the
trip
both
for
the
permanent
collections
and
for
the
special
exhibits
that
we're
going
to
talk
about.
So
it's
it's.
This
show
is
running
throughout
the
month
of
July.
So
what's
what's
in
July
that
we
need
to
know
about
well.
B
We
have
several
exciting
exhibitions
on
view
in
July.
The
first
is
herb,
ritts
beauty
and
celebrity,
and
this
exhibition
is
on
view
in
the
ground
floor
galleries
and
it's
a
photography
exhibition.
Herb
Ritts
really
became
known
in
the
1980s
for
his
photographs
of
celebrities
and
other
well-known
personas
many
people,
even
if
they
don't
know
the
name
Herb
Ritts.
As
soon
as
they
see
several
of
his
images,
they
recognized
the
work.
B
B
B
Exhibition
is
on
view
through
july
28,
so
will
be
on
view
throughout
the
month,
and
I
would
add,
he
also
went
to
africa
in
the
early
1990s
and
took
a
series
of
very
beautiful
photographs
in
east
africa,
and
those
are
also
we
have
a
nice
section
devoted
to
that
work
too.
So
there's
really
something
in
this
exhibition
for
everyone
and
the
photographs
range
and
scale
from
small
to
quite
quite
large
panels
that
are
just
absolutely
breathtaking.
B
B
The
color
reflects
our
Oklahoma
heritage
as
well,
with
the
shades
of
reds
and
browns
that
you
tend
to
think
of
the
Western
landscape
and
it's
a
lot
of
fun
for
people
of
all
ages.
Because
again,
you
can
actually
pull
the
ropes
and
and
push
and
touch
the
art,
which
is
something
that
you
can't
often
do
in
a
museum
appropriate.
B
A
A
Right,
well,
it
sounds
great
and
the
people
losses
should
know
about
the
museum
cafe
because
I
work
across
the
street
from
there
I
I'm
there
once
a
month
or
so,
but
other
people
don't
necessarily
know
that
they
can
come
downtown
and
go
to
the
museum
and
then
right.
Next
door
is
a
very
nice
restaurant.
Absolutely.
B
The
cafe
is
outstanding,
it's
great
to
come
throughout
the
week.
We're
open.
Also
our
Sunday
brunch
has
continued
to
receive
a
number
of
awards.
I'd
also
mention
on
Thursday
nights.
Our
admission
is
five
dollars
after
five
o'clock,
and
so
that's
a
great
time
to
come
down
and
enjoy
the
museum
at
a
reduced
rate
and
then
also
to
take
advantage
of
our
roof
terrace,
which
is
open
until
10pm
with
live
music
and
wonderful
views
of
the
city.
Now.
A
A
Beautiful
panoramic
view
of
ave,
oklahoma
city
and
very
few
people
have
actually
you
know:
exam
ilion
population
in
our
city,
very
few
of
have
had
an
opportunity
to
go
up
there.
So
another
recommendation
for
you
well
Allison
thanks
very
much,
and
we
appreciate
the
work
over
there
and
these
these.
These
special
prices
will
make
it
especially
inviting
I
think
for
our
viewers,
great.
A
E
So
us
a
canoe
kayak,
we
are
the
national
governing
body
for
competitive
canoe,
kayak
racing
in
the
United
States.
We
are
a
member
of
the
United
States
Olympic
Committee
we're
also
the
United
States
member
of
the
international
canoe
federation.
So
those
are
the
two
governing
bodies
that
we
really
align
ourselves
with
and
the
way
I
kind
of
explain
it
to
people
at
any
time,
you're
watching
the
the
Olympic
Games
or
the
paralympic
games
on
TV
and
you
see
canoeing.
A
E
That's
such
a
great
point,
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
always
say
is
that
in
this
country,
kids
are
not
going
to
their
PE
teachers
and
checking
out
canoes
and
kayaks
during
recess.
So
we've
got
to
come
up
with
better
ways
to
create
that
gateway
from
the
land
to
the
water
for
kids,
and
so
as
much
as
you
would
like
to
sort
of
say:
hey,
let's
go
all
50
states
and
spread
this
far
and
wide.
You
know
we
do
this
in
a
very
narrow
way.
E
You
know,
I
think
the
fourth,
the
four
things
that
I
look
for
in
a
really
strong
canoe,
kayak
community.
We
look
for
if
a
kid
wants
to
paddle
there
needs
to
be
gear,
good
access
to
gear
boats,
paddles.
There
needs
to
be
good
access
to
coaching
someone
who
knows
what's
going
on
on
the
water,
both
from
a
safety
standpoint,
but
also
as
an
athlete
development
standpoint.
E
E
We
we
do
and
and
that's
sort
of
in
in
different
ways.
I
think
I
would
always
say
I
don't
think
any
Olympic
sport
ever
connects
with
the
school
as
much
as
they
would
like
to
write.
I
mean
I
think
until
it's
like
that
is,
like
the
cool
thing
to
do
and
I
remember
one
time
going
to
a
school
in
Hawaii
and
I
saw
kids
walking
around
the
campus
with
an
outrigger
paddle.
A
canoe
paddle
like
that
was
the
cool
thing,
not
a
football,
not
a
baseball
bat
but
an
outrigger
canoe,
paddle.
E
So
I'll
we
always
have
that
image.
Will
Oklahoma
City
be
like
that
one
day
you
have
to
start
somewhere
and
we're
on
a
good
start
and
I
think
that
you
have
to
have
mom
and
dads
that
are
that,
like
the
idea
of
their
kids
doing
the
sport
having
a
100
million
dollar
boat
house
district
doesn't
hurt,
you
know
that
gives
mom
and
dad
a
lot
of
confidence
about
where
Johnny
and
Susie
are
spending
time
after
school
and
the
people
that
they're
doing
that
with
and
then.
E
Secondly,
it's
good
to
have
kids
that
are
kind
of
perpetually
on
their
way
to
the
next
thing.
They've
set
a
big
destination
on
on
the
map
in
this
kit.
You
know,
in
this
case
I'm
thinking
about
which
of
these
young
people
has
really
said
olympic
champion.
That's
going
to
be
me
so
having
a
guy
like
Dylan
Puckett,
who
grew
up
in
Jones
Oklahoma
racing,
his
first
olympic
trials
at
age,
16
years
old.
That's
the
right
way
to
kind
of
start
down
this
road
right
and.
A
E
Only
how
he
had
started
a
paddle
before
we
moved
here,
but
not
by
much
but
I.
Think
one
thing,
that's
even
more
interesting
about
Dylan's
Dylan
story.
You
know
when
Dylan
came
to
the
sport
of
canoe,
kayak
and
I.
Don't
say
this
in
any
way
to
you
know
to
embarrass
him,
but
Dylan
was
more.
What
we
would
say
was
more
indicative
of
our
health
and
wellness
issues
that
we
have
here
in
Oklahoma
City.
E
He
takes
up
a
sport
that
he
really
enjoys
doing
he's
involved
with
a
group
of
people
who
that
he,
if
you
know
that
he
assimilates
well
with
and
affiliates
well
with,
is
supportive,
but
yet
you're
only
kayaking,
because
you
decide
you
want
to
kayak.
So
you
begin
to
kind
of
put
that
those
wheels
in
Motion's
in
your
life
outside
of
the
kayak
things
begin
to
change.
You
begin
to
eat
healthier.
You
begin
to
kind
of
approach,
your
school
work
differently.
You
begin
to
kind
of
respect
your
space
and
the
family
structure
a
little
bit
differently.
E
I
think
there's
a
couple
of
interesting
things
like
that
that
we
do
have
annual
events
at
the
Boathouse,
regional
and
national
competitions
that
attract
people
from
from
all
over.
So
one
of
the
neat
things
about
that
is
that
if
you're
the
mom
and
dad
of
a
young
person
and
you're
sort
of
evaluating
the
cost
of
kayaking
well,
if
you're
not
having
to
shuttle
your
kid
over
to
Europe
and
California-
and
you
know
it
Atlanta
all
the
time
and
you've
got
the
best
paddlers
in
the
world.
E
Oh
by
the
way
canoeing-
it's
not
just
for
canoe,
it's
can
you
an
kayaking,
but
canoe
on
an
international
level
is
sort
of
the
universal
word
for
both
canoe
and
kayak.
So
when
we
say
canoe
sprint,
we're
talking
about
sprint,
canoe
and
kayaks,
but
internationally,
that's
just
kind
of
the
word
so
marathon,
you
actually
paddle
in
boats
a
lot
like
the
sprint
boats.
We
have
at
the
boathouse
they're
very
fast,
the
very
tippy
boats,
and
these
are
20
kilometer
races
and
they
will
race
laps
around
the
boat
house
district.
E
But
what
really
makes
the
marathon
cool
is
that
every
once
in
a
while
during
the
race
they
get
out
of
their
boats
and
they
run
with
their
kayaks
on
a
dock
and
then
they
jump
back
in
and
then
they
paddle
again
so
they're
these
you
know,
there's
a
there's.
The
only
part
of
our
sport
in
the
only
discipline
where
you
actually
get
out
and
you
run
with
your
kayak
and
you
get
back
in
and.
E
E
A
E
But
now
you
get
into
the
media
and
broadcast
side
of
it,
VIP
sponsors
and
donors,
the
spectators
all
these
other
stakeholders,
these
sports
really
thrive
at
night
and
the
ability
of
really
creating
an
attraction
down
at
the
river
and
taking
an
event,
a
canoe,
kayak
event
to
a
much
higher
level,
with
a
much
better
delivery
of
those
upscale
services
that
you
would
normally
see
say
at
a
sky
suite
in
the
sky.
Suite
at
a
thunder
game
are
now
coming
to
the
world
of
canoe
kayak
and
that's
good.
We
need
that.
E
We
need
something
that
really
changes
the
conversation
and
gets
people
to
really
look
at
the
sport
projected
through
a
lens
fifty
years
into
the
future,
as
opposed
to
50
years
into
the
past.
So
the
boathouse
district
does
exactly
that
and
the
light
and
the
lighting
for
the
night
Sprint's
will
do
just
that.
I
think
the
other
thing,
that's
just
that
we're
really
seeing
is
how
popular
that
sky
trail
is.
E
You
know
our
urban
ropes
course
where
you
clip
in
on
the
ground,
and
you
can
ascend
90
feet
up
in
the
air
across
elements
and
beams
and
there's
a
slide,
and
now
the
rumble
drop
the
reason
I
kind
of
even
as
someone
whose
goal
it
is
to
develop
more
Olympians
and
ultimately,
more
more
medals
for
canoe
kayak.
What
we've
discovered
here
in
Oklahoma
City
is
that
this
attraction
model,
where
your
Olympic
training
site
is
not
an
elite
athlete
island,
but
it's
kind
of
part,
Disney,
World
and
part
Olympic
training
site.
E
We
have
these
attractions
here
that
are
promoting
a
more
health
and
wellness
in
projecting
that
into
the
lifestyle,
but
while
there
they
are,
they
have
every
opportunity
to
learn
more
about
kids,
kayaking
programs,
corporate
rowing
leagues
or
all
the
different
user
groups
that
we
reach
out
to
no
fences.
No
barriers,
everybody's
in
under
one
tent
and
I
mean
I've,
been
in
the
Olympic
movement.
E
E
August,
eighth,
ninth
and
tenth
us
a
canoe
kayak,
sprint
national
championships,
400
of
the
best
young
characters
in
the
world
coming
to
race
for
national
titles.
We,
including
will
have
probably
upwards
of
50
kids
from
Oklahoma
City
race,
our
national
championship,
so
you'll
be
hearing
a
lot
more
about
the
national
championships
come
early,
August
that
be
day
or
night
or.
E
A
The
river
lights
will
be
going
on
this
summer
and
so
one
of
the
most
high-profile
maps,
three
investments
that
the
citizens
made
back
in
December
of
09
about
to
be
on
display
so
get
down
and
liquids
what
your
investment
has
done
for
Oklahoma,
City
and
and
sports,
and
athletes
like
Joe
Jacoby,
thanks
for
coming
on
it's
great
to
be
here.
Thank
you
for
your
service.
A
B
D
A
A
Guys
were
involved
in
one
of
the
most
I
think
heartwarming
stories
of
the
as
the
reparations
of
the
May
twenty
of
storms.
So
I'm
just
going
to.
Let
you
talk
and
tell
me
I
know
a
little
bit
about
it,
but
I
want
to
hear
more
about
it
about
what
you
all
did
for
the
kids
that
were
impacted
by
the
storms
in
more
in
Oklahoma.
D
Right
well,
we
really
wanted
to
not
just
focus
on
the
more
storms,
but
all
the
storms
that
impacted
our
state
during
the
month
of
May,
and
I
actually
had
just
a
crazy
idea
of
let's
try
to
get
these
kids
new
bicycles,
because
I
know
that
there's
tons
of
disaster
relief
going
on
in
all
of
us
tremendous,
but
it's
for
true
necessities
of
clothing,
food,
shelter,
but
people
don't
think
of
bicycles.
No,
you.
D
D
D
They
have
their
child
camp
that
goes
on
during
the
summer,
and
so
kids
that
have
been
affected
by
the
storms
that
had
fema
numbers
were
selected
to
have
the
opportunity
to
come
to
our
bike
shop
and
get
a
brand
new
bicycle
that
fit
their
needs,
whether
it
was
a
boy
or
a
girl
or
tall
or
small,
and
just
watching
they'll
be
able
to
pick
out.
These
bikes
was
pretty
awesome
that.
A
D
The
families
were
overjoyed
to
be
able
to
take
a
moment
out
of
everything.
That's
been
going
on
to
give
their
child
some
form
of
normality.
Of
you
know,
it's
a
new
bicycle
and
the
thundergirls
came
out
and
helped
us
pass
out
the
bikes
and
some
of
our
local
racing
teams,
DNA
racing,
a
local
cycling
team
came
out
and
volunteered
with
us
that
day
and
just
helped
us
try
and
give
these
kids
just
something
back.
That
was
taken
away
from
them.
So
it
was
pretty
tremendous
yeah.
A
Well,
let's
talk
about
cycling
in
general,
in
the
Oklahoma
City
area,
the
citizens
have
invested,
you
know
over
the
years
and
bicycle
trails
and,
and
you
see
bike
lanes
and
in
some
of
the
streets
and
we're
doing
a
better
job
as
sidewalks
out
in
there
in
the
suburban
areas.
How
has
the
sport
grown
in
relationship
to
the
investments
we've
made?
We've.
D
Seen
a
huge
growth,
especially
in
our
shop
with
bike
sales,
but
you
just
see
more
people
out
and
about
around
downtown
automobile
alley.
The
neighborhood
were
in
the
bike
lanes
that
the
city
has
put
it
in
has
been
tremendous.
It
just
gives
a
cyclist
more
of
a
designated
place
to
be
creates
a
better
sense
of
awareness
from
car
to
bike
and
a
sense
of
safety
for
everyone
involved,
whether
it's
a
foot,
pedestrian,
cyclist
or
automobile.
And
then
the
trails
have
been
tremendous,
the
Oklahoma
River
Trail.
D
We
actually
use
that
every
week
on
Wednesdays
for
a
beginner
ride.
We
have
that
leaves
from
the
shop
and
goes
down
through
the
River
Trail
I'm
back
and
it's
just
a
nice
casual
beginner
ride
that
just
really
teaches
you
how
to
ride
in
a
group
because
that's
important
to
learn
so
you
can
stay
safe
and
keep
car
safe.
People
think
you
know
cyclists.
You
have
to
watch
out
for
them,
but
they
also
have
to
watch
out
for
cars
too.
So
really
goes
both
ways.
So
just
people
moving
downtown.
D
A
Of
the
I
think,
tragedies
of
the
evolution
of
the
neighborhood
in
the
last
generation
has
been
fewer.
Kids
can
ride
their
bike
to
school.
Are
we
seeing
any
sort
of
a
rebound
in
that
area?
There
I
think
I
tend
to
think
we
are
seeing
more
kids
walk
to
school
and
sometimes
a
parent
walks
with
them
a
bike.
It's
a
little
trickier
I'm,
not
sure
that
every
every
parent
wants
to
ride
their
bike
with
with
their
kid.
But
are
we
seeing
anymore
of
that
I.
D
Believe
that
we
are
I,
live,
downtown
and
I
see
children
every
morning,
riding
their
bikes
to
school,
whether
it
is
film
riding
alone,
if
they're,
one
of
the
older
children
or
mom
and
dad
pedaling
along
side
of
them,
and
even
the
younger
ones
in
the
bike
carriers
that
you
can
put
your
little
girl
or
boy
in
the
back
seat,
buckle
omen
and
it
kind
of
just
totes
them
along
to
school,
and
we
also
see
it.
You
know
doing
general
errands
people
are
getting
bikes
that
are
more
comfortable
and
you
can
have
veneers
or
baskets.
D
So
you
can
run
to
the
store,
get
some
groceries
and
then
drop
back
home
and
I
think
that
that's
a
testament
to
the
growth
that
we've
seen
downtown
with
more
housing
and
people
just
moving
to
the
city
to
the
center
and
I
really
feel
like
that's
a
testament
to
people
being
able
to
ride
bikes
to
school
the
store
and
just
really
incorporate
it
into
their
daily
lifestyle.
So
so,
yes,
I
think
we
are
seeing
it
a
return
to
people
pedaling
to
school,
yeah.
D
I
know,
I
would
never
recommend
that
anyone
ride
their
bike
without
helmet
and
I
know
that
that's
really
a
stance
the
shop
has
to.
It
would
just
be
foolish
to
not
wear
a
helmet.
When
you
ride
a
bike,
it
should
just
go
hand
in
hand,
I
mean
being
safe,
is,
and
you
can
always
be
fashionable
to.
We
have.
A
And
cycling
is
a
great
way
to
stay
fit.
You
know
sep
for
some
people,
you
know
the
runnings
just
not
their
deal
right,
and
so
they
like
to
have
a
little
more
entertainment
or
a
little
more.
You
know
in
involvement
in
the
exercise
it
for
some
people.
Cycling
is
a
wonderful
way
to
stay
in
shape.
It's.
D
A
great
way
to
stay
in
shape
it's
a
great
way
to
be
social
there's,
so
many
social
elements
with
cycling.
You
can
make
new
friends
meet
new
people
and,
as
far
as
staying
in
shape,
goes
it
it's
much
better
on
the
knees,
much
better
on
the
joints,
low
impact
sport,
so
you're
able
to
do
it
for
a
much
longer
time
of
your
life,
and
you
can
whether
it
is
stationary
or
recumbent
or
a
true
road
bike
or
a
cruise
or
mountain
bike.
D
Would
recommend
is
coming
by
the
shop
and
asking
some
questions,
because
if
you
just
come,
ask
some
simple
questions.
Our
sales
guys
are
able
to
help.
You
find
the
bike.
That's
really
right
for
you.
I
feel,
like
a
lot
of
people,
might
think.
Oh
Vikings,
not
for
me
because
they
see
biking
on
TV
and
they
see
bike
races,
but
there's
casual
bikes
out
there
and
there's
road
bikes
and
triathlete
bikes
if
you're
real
serious,
but
we
also
have
cruiser
bikes,
which
are
nice
for
just
a
stroll
around
downtown
or
your
neighborhood.
That's.
