HOWALD Of the Keizertimes A list of memorable re- actions by visitors to Salem’s Nightmare Factory as recalled by the actors involved: • Frightening one man so badly he started swinging a handbag at the actor who cornered him. (Trevor Rob- ertson) • Scaring a woman so badly she fell on her backside be- fore running past the actor and into multiple walls before escaping to another room. (Izzy Zachary) • Literally just staring at a woman in line and causing her to black out. (Kivo Le- Ferve) • Making people pee their pants. (Multiple ac- tors and, yes, it happens.) “ W h a t ’s even crazier is that they will announce it to everyone when they do it,” Gridders drop to 0-4 PAGE A12 Conserve now to save later PAGE A2 Please see FACTORY, Page A3 Keizer mayor honored by peers with major award The prestigious James C. Richards Award was presented Friday evening to Keizer. Mayor Cathy Clark during the League of Oregon Cities’ 94th annual conference in Bend. The award is given to an elected city offi cial who serves the citizens of Oregon through an exceptional per- sonal investment in intergov- ernmental affairs. Clark was cited for being an unwavering champion for the Keizer community, a lead- er in the Mid-Willamette Val- ley and among mayors across the state. During her years on the Keizer City Council, Clark led efforts to coordinate local library services, fund miles of streetscape and transportation improvements and helped de- velop a new civic and event center. In 2017, she was pivotal in creating stable funding for parks and police services and has taken a keen interest in directing public resources to homeless programs that have made measurable impacts. Regionally, Clark been a steady presence in conversa- tions regarding transportation “Real leadership isn’t easy, it often necessitates dealing with very diffi cult, challenging issues, issues that others prefer to ignore — not Mayor Clark.” — John McArdle, Mayor of Independence Please see AWARD, Page A6 Submitted Keizer Mayor Cathy Clark (second from left) accepts the James C. Richards Award at a ceremony in Bend. Where to turn depends on need, but help is available By CASEY CHAFFIN For the Keizertimes Juanita Aniceto was starting to get worried. As a youth support specialist with the Salem Drop, a youth community center-slash-sup- port network, she invests a lot of time, energy and care into the young people she works with. When a boy she had been working with for a while told her no one cared about him, and he might as well not even be here, she was concerned. But she was able to check in on him when he came to the Drop. Then, one day, he didn’t show up. He also didn’t re- spond to Aniceto’s texts checking in. She waited, an- other day went by. Still no re- sponse. As time passed on that second day, she became more distraught. Did something happen? Is he still alive? Just as she received per- mission from her boss to go check on him in person, the boy walked through the door. Aniceta sunk into a nearby chair, frazzled but relieved. “I couldn't stop crying,” Aniceto said. “Because for a minute, I thought he had died by suicide.” Aniceto said sometimes it’s First responders get financial booster PAGE A4 A sportsman and a spokesperson PAGE A12 TEENS AND MENT E A LT H MENTAL A L H HEALTH diffi cult to convince the kids she works with they’re more than a job. But this moment convinced the boy. “He started crying,” she said. “And he said, ‘Now, you’ve given me a reason to live.’” The teen told her that when he thinks of dying by suicide, he remembers how the idea of him dying brought Aniceto to tears. He tells her, “I know there's somebody that cares about me, so because of that reason I can't give up on myself.” “That's the number one thing,” Aniceto said. “[Young people] need somebody to believe in them,” she said. And that goes for all kids, not just those who are cur- rently depressed or suicidal, she said. “All youth are at risk,” said Please see HELP, Page A5
