If it is true that too many cooks spoil the broth, then the dozens of pizzas the culinary class at Makerspace made last week should not have been edible.

A dog, a horse, a pig, a couple of snakes, several baby chicks and even a dinosaur attended summer camp at Cleveland Elementary School last week. The animals were not provided by a farm or zoo, but by two volunteers with Lawton Community Theatre (LCT) as part of a puppet show. Martha McCartney and Marsha Thomas, long-time volunteers, taught students how to respect puppets and explained their purpose. “We want them to pick a puppet and then to join the story,” McCartney said.
