Professional Services in Norman

The professional staff at Master Cleaners excises stains from the usual suspects such as shirts, pants, and gowns, but also from bulky comforters and the delicate lacework or satin of wedding dresses. During dry-cleaning and laundry services, the team demonstrates an eye for detail not only by tracking down dirt, but by giving missing buttons a suitable replacement. The team dangles newly minted duds on heavy-duty hangers that won't flex and allow clothes to slide off onto the floor, unlike most vain bodybuilders.

Teen emPower! Inc. (TEI) hosts two programs that aim to prevent high-risk sexual behaviors among adolescents that could lead to pregnancy or STIs. The programs include The Courage to Say KNOW, which was developed at the University of Oklahoma, and Postponing Sexual Involvement, which teaches students to be peer mentors and share science-based instruction. The programs take a holistic approach to healthy sexual relationships by touching on a variety of issues, including setting boundaries, the prevention of HIV and other STIs, contraceptives, self-esteem, and abstinence. TEI draws students from three regional high schools and trains them to become peer educators so they can help spread the programs to middle-school students and high-school freshmen.

A variety of exhibitors and special guests join the festivities, which range from catering spreads for guests to taste, to discussions of tablescaping and how to select flowers that won't attract bees to a family-only service. Attendees also salivate at samples for cake designs from the area’s best sugar artists and peruse tuxedos, gowns, and bridesmaids dresses before seeing the garments in motion during a bridal fashion show.
