Edmond Fine Arts Institute 2018 Jr. Theatre Production Just think about those old-fashioned nursery rhymes and it’s easy to see why Mother Goose went to medical school and opened up a clinic in Nurseryland. There’s no “happily ever after” here! These poor nursery rhyme characters are plagued with freak acci-dents! A typical morning in Dr. Goose’s clinic includes a cow with a sore calf from moon-jumping, a crooked man want-ing chiropractic adjustment, a daredevil who burns his seat jumping over candles, and a blonde juvenile delinquent who breaks into bears’ houses. With the help of her assis-tant, Nurse Gosling, Dr. Goose even runs nutritional sup-port groups and aerobics classes for a man who eats no fat and his opposite wife, a tea-guzzling girl named Polly and a Queen who craves tarts. But will Dr. Zhivago from Fairy Tale Land close down the clinic? There are three blind mice without tails who sure hope not! Fast-paced with slapstick humor and silly situations, this imaginative weaving of nurs-ery rhymes with modern twists offers something audiences of all ages will enjoy!

J. D. McCarty Center Camp ClapHans RegistrationSummer sessions start in June at camp for kids with special needs
Registration starts Jan. 19 for Camp ClapHans, a summer camp in Norman for kids with disabilities. The camp is open to kids ages 8 to 18 and is an outreach program of the J.D. McCarty Center for children with developmental disabilities. Applications are due March 9. The cost to attend camp is $325, and scholarships are available to families who qualify.
Five camp sessions are offered this summer, and the ses-sions are from Sunday afternoon to Wednesday afternoon. The camp is located on the center’s campus at 2002 E. Rob-inson St. in Norman and features two cabins and an activities building that are located next to an 11-acre lake.
Activities for campers include archery, arts and crafts, canoe-ing, fishing, horseback riding, talent shows and swimming.
This summer’s theme is “Under the Sea,” and games, activi-ties and crafts will be tailored to the theme.
“With all of the water activities that campers get to do, this theme is perfect for Camp ClapHans,” said Camp Director Bobbie Hunter.
Hunter said the camp offers exciting programs and the op-portunity for kids to challenge themselves through new ac-tivities.
“Everyday kids are learning new skills, making new friends and developing self-confidence,” Hunter said.
Camp ClapHans also features a 1-to-1 staff to camper ratio, registered dietitians on site to address dietary needs for campers and a physician and nurses available to assist with medical needs.
Camp staff members are typically university students who are working toward a degree in allied health-care fields, such as physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-lan-guage pathology; special and general education; outdoor recreation; nutrition and other related fields.
The camp, which opened in 2013, serves kids from across the state and can accommodate 60 campers each summer.For more information about camp, contact Hunter at 405-307-2865 or email [email protected].

Sneezing, itchy eyes, runny noses…and it is winter? What is going on?
Mountain cedar is a very important tree allergen in Oklahoma. Sometimes called the Christmas allergy, mountain cedar pollinates typically from November through March. One cone on a mountain cedar tree can have hundreds of thou-sands pollen grains making it a potent allergen. Moun-tain cedar pollen can travel for hundreds of miles, and some of the pollen detected in Oklahoma actually comes from Texas. The dry weather conditions can potentially contribute to making pol-len-related allergies worse.
“The back and forth temper-atures, cold to warm to and warm to cold, can create the perfect atmosphere for polli-nation,” said Oklahoma Aller-gy & Asthma Clinic Allergist Dr. Laura Chong.” “Here are steps you can take to keep pollen out of your life and
Cedar Pollen Strikes Again
ease your symptoms.”
Starting at home, keeping windows closed will help keep pollen out. Change your air filters monthly on your heating and cooling unit. When you’ve been out-side, your clothing and hair can be coated with pollen. Take a quick shower and wash your clothes to keep your living areas as pollen free as possible. Wear close-fitting sunglasses to protect your eyes from pollen. Artifi-cial tears eye drops can help wash the pollen out of eyes. No one loves to do house chores but dusting should be left to the person who is not allergic, if possible.
“When driving to work, keep your windows closed,” Dr.
Chong said. “This will help pollen from blowing into your car. Any way you can lessen exposure your pollen should be of utmost impor-tance to your overall well being.”
If you have dogs and cats that go outdoors, they will get covered with pollen as well. Bathing your pets con-stantly is probably not very realistic, at the least, keep pets off of your bed and out of your bedroom.
Using a sinus irrigation, na-sal spray and antihistamines can help. If you use a sinus irrigation, distilled water rather than tap water is rec-ommended.
Depending on the sever-ity of the symptoms, several medications are available.
“We recommend you visit with your physician or OAAC allergist to determine the best plan of action,” said Dr. Chong.
If your allergies are still both-ering you despite medica-tion management, allergen immunotherapy might be the next step.
“Immunotherapy or allergy shots can help your body build tolerance to specific allergens,” Dr. Chong said. “Through an allergy test, we can identify exactly what is causing your symptoms. Al-lergy shots contain extracts of the allergen you are al-lergic to help build your im-mune system to those aller-gens.
