alongside silent and oral auc-
tions, is the department’s larg-
est annual fundraiser. Silent
auctions begin at 5:30 p.m.
The oral auctions will be part
of the main show beginning at
7 p.m. Tickets, which include
a bidding paddle, are $10.
After spending the past
several years building up Mc-
Nary’s Studio M, where stu-
dents can record and produce
music and videos onsite, the
theatre cameras will help cre-
ate additional synergy.
“A lot of the programs are
still isolated right now. The
closed circuit cameras can
make us more collaborative,”
said Todd Layton, digital arts
instructor at the school.
A lower-end three-cam-
era system would be about
$18,000. A higher-end cam-
era system could include fi ve
cameras with room to expand,
but it comes with a price tag
of about $50,000. Due to
the cost, the department may
squirrel away a good portion
of the proceeds and purchase
something more than the ba-
sic package.
• A trip to the Oregon
coast.
• A high-end electric uke-
lele.
• A Traeger grill.
• A wine tour with a de-
partment director.
• A local getaway package.
For those who can’t make
the event themselves, Taylor
invites them to make an ap-
pointment with someone in
the department for a tour of
what is being offered.
“During the last period
today, I had six groups of stu-
dents working on six differ-
ent projects and most of them
stayed after school to work
without being asked. More
than arts, we teach organiza-
tion, follow-through and tak-
ing pride in your work,” Tay-
lor said.
Donations to the Fine Arts
Department can also be given
at the McNary High School
main offi ce at any time.The
school is located at 595 Che-
mawa Road N.
Knight of Arts takes place
there as well.

Once installed, the cam-
era system would provide for
high-end job training with
less effort and coordination.
“Students would be able to
activate the cameras in Stu-
dio M or even off-site. Right
now, we have to have four or
fi ve people volunteer to come
in and record things, which
means we miss some events.
We’d like to be able to docu-
ment everything that happens
in the theatre for historical
purposes, but also to produce
high-quality DVDs for sale
to families and others in the
community,” Taylor said.
In addition to the larger
purchase, the proceeds fund
$5,000 in student scholarships;
one $500 scholarship for each
of the seven fi ne arts pursuits
and an overall “grand prize”
$1,500 scholarship. Each sec-
tion of the department will
also receive money for pet
projects. Layton would like
to replace the school’s vinyl
cutter, music programs are
looking to replace or upgrade
some instruments, the visual
arts will get more money for
materials and the drama de-
partment is hoping to pur-
chase some LED lights.
Big-ticket items up for auc-
tion include:
• A trip to Pints of Portland
where the winning bidder will
help create their own brew
and then return with a party
of 10 friends for its unveiling.
They’ll also get a keg of their
creation.
• A landscaping package
that includes 20 hours of la-
bor, $150 in base materials and
$500 for plants.
• An exterior house-paint-
ing package.
Keizer’s new
website close
to going live
By CRAIG MURPHY
Of the Keizertimes
The City of Keizer’s new
website should be up any day
now.
Or is that any week?
As previously mentioned
in the Keizertimes, Keizer City
Councilors approved a con-
tract last May to replace the
city’s antiquated website. The
anticipation at the time was
the new site would be up and
running by the end of 2014,
but the old site from 2004 is
still being used.
John McKown, president
of Evo Government Web-
sites, confi rmed in December
changes were made last fall to
speed up the project, though
there wasn’t a large-scale em-
ployee turnover.
“The project manager that
we had on the project was re-
placed because the project was
not moving forward as fast
as it should,” McKown said.
“We are committed to giving
Keizer the best possible result,
and it was for this reason that
we changed team members
running the project. While
this is obviously longer than
we specifi ed in our proposal,
we are confi dent that the new
website will serve Keizer well
and continue to offer value
and performance for years to
come.”
On Feb. 27, McKown gave
another update on the prog-
ress.
“The design work is com-
pleted, the website is built, and
the content has been migrated
from the old site to the new
site,” McKown said. “Training
has been provided (to Keizer
staff) and they are happy. It’s
ready to launch this week
coming up.”
City Manager Chris Ep-
pley, however, gave a different
timeline.
“The website is about
ready to be populated with
our date,” Eppley said on Feb.
27. “I’m guessing 30 to 60
days from going live.”
Tim Wood, Keizer’s assis-
tant controller who has been
working on the project, gave a
timeline closer to Eppley’s.
“As of last Friday all of the
existing content from the old
website had been migrated to
the new site,” Wood said on
Tuesday. “The website project
team has had an initial train-
ing session on how to use the
content management system
and are in the process of re-
viewing and reorganizing the
existing content and creating
new content as needed.
“Once the website project
team completes the review
and reorganization process the
site will be ready for the initial
launch,” he added. “Realisti-
cally we are a few weeks out
from launching the site as we
want to give adequate time to
complete the internal review
process.”
