Student Night EVERY THURSDAY! All Ages Movies in Theatre #3. Today in History The Rosetta Stone is discovered in Egypt. The black basalt slab was inscribed with ancient writing near the town of Rosetta. The irregularly shaped stone contained fragments of passages written in three different scripts: Greek, Egyptian hieroglyphics and Egyptian demotic. The Greek passage announced that the three scripts were all of identical meaning. The artifact thus held the key to solving the riddle of hieroglyphics, a written language that had been “dead” for nearly 2,000 years. — July 19, 1799 Food 4 Thought “In life, you can blame a lot of people and you can wallow in self-pity, or you can pick yourself up and say, ‘Listen, I have to be responsible for myself.” — Howard Schultz, former CEO, Starbucks, born July 19, 1953 The Weeks Ahead Continuing through Saturday, July 20 Shakespeare in the Park—As You Like It, presented by Keizer Homegrown Theatre, 7 p.m. performances at Keizer Rotary Amphitheatre at Keizer Rapids Park.

Hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Diehl wants this event to have a community picnic type of vibe, which is why KFD will also have a free hot dog lunch for the fi rst 300 people in attendance, as well as face painting, rock painting and an infl atable obstacle course. While she has done much of the heavy lifting, Diehl has also gotten some help from generous volunteers in the community, as well as more than 30 sponsors — with most of then coming from Keizer businesses. “It was remarkably easy to get folks to volunteer,” Diehl said. “They just started showing up and they have been committed the whole time. It has really been incredible. Getting people here was no problem at all.” While both KPD and Keizer Fire District will have a strong presence at the race, it was extremely important for Diehl to have different vendor booths catered towards people with special needs. Shangri-La — an organization serving individuals with disabilities and families with disabilities — and Marion County Intellectual CHARTER, continued from Page A1 it held an hour-long work ses- sion on the topic a week prior. Councilor Dan Kohler was the only dissenter. The decision to expand the committee arose out of a June meeting of the VCC. A Keizer resident who is not yet a U.S. citizen applied to serve on the committee, and was denied by the members of the VCC despite being “the most prepared … very articulate, and who has a unique perspective of being in the process of obtaining U.S. citizenship.” That assessment was included in an email from Mayor Cathy Clark, who heard about what transpired through her appointee to the VCC, Daisy Hickman. The council had established that only registered voters, and thereby U.S. citizens, could serve on the committee. During the work session councilors had leaned toward the option that passed Monday, but Kohler said he had talked with constituents that felt being a registered voter was a reasonable requirement. “Electors have skin in the game, and that was something I heard from a lot of people,” Kohler said last week. The VCC is expected to consider additional appointments to the charter review committee at its August 15 meeting. Volunteer applications are available at www.keizer.org or in person at the Keizer Civic Center. Applications need to be received by Aug. 7 at 5 p.m. Wednesday, July 24 Keizer/Salem Area Seniors present bingo, 12:30-3:30 p.m. Admission is $5.50. Monetary prizes, free game cards and daubers at 930 Plymouth Drive NE. and Developmental Disability Services — who provides case management, intake, eligibility determination and referrals for in home support, residential services and employment — will be on-hand to provide information on the types of services that they offer. “We're hoping that families who might have young children with disabilities might be curious about resources and programs that they could get their children involved in,” Diehl said. “Being a new parent is scary anyway, but fi nding out that your child might have unique challenges that not all the other parents you know are going to be dealing with can be very overwhelming. So for them to go sit in the bleachers at a Special Olympics event with parents who are going through the same challenges, that is extremely valuable.” “It helps them know how they can be the best advocate for their child, so we're hoping to carry that on by having some of these resources out there.” There will also be a Special Olympics booth, along with athletes at every intersection of the course to cheer on runners. Over the course of this process, Diehl and other members of the KPD have had the privilege of meeting and interacting with many Special Olympics athletes from Oregon. “It's been extremely rewarding for me and pretty eye-opening,” Diehl said. “When you start meeting the athletes and hearing about all of the training they do and all of the sports that are available and knowing what it means to them. It's a huge part of their lives.” Copeland added: “The more we interact with people involved with Special Olympics, the more we realize that we want to get more involved. To be able to host an event that will hopefully bring some substantial funds to the Special Olympics in Marion County is pretty cool.” One particular athlete that has been a huge help in planning the 5K is Jenny Hill, who has been friends with Diehl for a few years. Hill has been a part of Special Olympics for over 20 years and has competed in a several sports and has even goten t to compete in the world games as a gymnast. “It's given me the opportunity to meet new people, stay fi t and have a lot of fun experiences,” Hill said of the Special Olympics. When she found out that the KFD wanted to do something for Special Olympics in Marion County, she was thrilled and wanted to help in any way that she could. “When they said they wanted to put it on, it was a big deal for us,” Hill said. “It's been a huge blessing.” One of the other big motivations for Diehl was the fact that Special Olympic Oregon has gone through some severe fi nancial struggles over the last couple years — they canceled the 2018 summer and fall games, as well as the winter games in 2019. “To know the past couple years, the programs have been cut pretty drastically and they have missed out on a lot of things that they have been training for and looking forward to,” Diehl said. “That's pretty heartbreaking to see that, so part of what we want this event to accomplish is to show them that our community supports them. It's not just about raising some money to actually fund the programs. A huge part of it is just showing that we're here for them, even when they don't having the funding to do all that they want to do.” You can register, volunteer or support at runsignup. com/Race/OR/Keizer/PD.

NEWSLETTER: Oregon law bars interfering with assembly facility to communicate or assemble among themselves, at reasonable times and in a reasonable manner. Prohibit any person who rents a space for a manufactured dwelling or fl oating home from canvassing other persons in the same facility for purposes described in this section. As used in this subsection, “canvassing” includes door- to-door contact, an oral or written request, the distribution, the circulation, the posting or the publication of a notice or newsletter or a general announcement or any other matter relevant to the membership of a tenants’ association.” Keizertimes asked representatives of the Manufactured Communities Resource Center (MCRC) where this fell within the rights of an owner. “MCRC doesn’t provide legal advice. However, after reviewing the tenants’ rental agreement, MCRC would encourage dialogue between the parties; reminding both parties of the applicability of ORS 90.750. Failing agreement, either party may seek mediation at no charge to either party; if a mediated agreement remains unresolved, either party may elect civil action,” said Ariel Nelson, MCRC’s communications liaison.
