Lawton's recent commitment to the passing of the Hotel Motel tax means good news for community non profits that benefit from the proceeds of this tax.  One of them is the Lawton Community Theatre.  When we spoke to Chance Harmon about the future of the LCT, he said that this funding was essential to keeping the doors open for the near future.  We are glad that LCT will be able to present programs like this one to SW Oklahoma.
