APRIL 22, 2016, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A3 Volunteers honored at KHC appreciation event The Keizer Community Library, Keizer Art Associa- tion, Keizer Heritage Mu- seum and Keizer Heritage Center Foundation honored more than 80 volunteers at the annual volunteer appre- ciation event, “Giving Time, Touching Hearts,” on Sunday, April 17. The Keizer Art Association presented its Distinguished Volunteer Award to John De- Jarnatt, an association member since 2013. “John has made himself invaluable as our webmaster, our monthly poster designer and our event photographer,” said Keizer Art Association Board of Directors president Lore Christopher. “He never says ‘no;’ he always shows up, participates, and over-delivers. John DeJarnatt is a perfect fi rst recipient of our Distinguished Volunteer Award.” Acting as the volunteer event photographer, DeJarnett turned over his camera to an- other volunteer long enough to accept his award. “Thank you, John, for all you do for KAA,” Christopher said.

From contribut- ing to library committee work, to serving as vice president of the library Board of Directors, to knitting winter scarves for patrons, she has been willing to help the library.” Her commitment is most exemplifi ed when she volun- teered, without hesitation, to steer the library through a dif- fi cult transition in 2015 as the unoffi cial Library Manager. “She has been my rock and the rock for everyone at the library,” Hickman said. The Art Burr Library Champion Award is named for the late Art Burr, who began volunteering at the library in 1999 and was instrumental in forming a Blue Ribbon Com- mittee to explore options for a suitable library location and worked closely with city lead- ers and the Heritage Center Foundation, culminating in double the fl oor space at the Heritage Center and addi- tional collaborations with the City of Keizer. He served as voluntary Library Director from 2008 until 2011, when he became co-director with the late Steve Prothero, namesake of the li- brary’s Prothero Computer Center.
