Today in History The Soviet Union inaugurates the “Space Age” with its launch of Sputnik, the world’s fi rst artifi cial satellite. The spacecraft, named Sputnik after the Russian word for “satellite,” was launched from the Tyuratam launch base in the Kazakh Republic. Sputnik had a diameter of 22 inches and weighed 184 pounds and circled Earth once every hour and 36 minutes, traveling at 18,000 miles an hour. Visible with binoculars before sunrise or after sunset, Sputnik transmitted radio signals back to Earth strong enough to be picked up by amateur radio operators. — October 4, 1957 Food 4 Thought “You’ve got to think about big things while you’re doing small things, so that all the small things go in the right direction.” — Alvin Toffl er, author of Future Shock, born Oct. 4, 1928 The Weeks Ahead Through Saturday, October 12 Willamette University Theatre presents Men on Boats by Jaclyn Backhaus.

HOWALD Of the Keizertimes The Marion Polk chapter of the National Alliance on Men- tal Health (NAMI) is looking for adult volunteers to share their experiences with men- tal health challenges at local schools. The new program is called Ending the Silence. Volunteers take part in training that will prepare them to share their personal stories about struggles with mental health or loving someone who does. “For volunteers, it is a day- long training and starts with facilitators working with them to tell their story. By the end, they’ve had opportunities to highlight different aspects of their story for different audi- ences, respond to questions and do some roleplaying,” said Brenna Bandstra, a NAMI trainer and presenter. Once volunteers pass through the course, they are paired with another regular NAMI volunteer to visit local classrooms. “[Volunteering] is all peer- based,” said Sarah Zecchini, another NAMI trainer and presenter. “We don’t focus on clinical backgrounds, it’s more about lived experience. As long as you have lived with mental health issues or loved someone who has.” To volunteer or sign up for any of NAMI’s multitude traffi c court NO LICENSE Dakotah James Inman, $235; Caritina Vasquez Vasquez, $245; Ashton Edwin Maloney, $245.

NAMI is a network of men- tal health advocacy, research, support and education. It rep- resents those living with major depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder and borderline personality disorder. Annual membership is $40 per indi- vidual or $5 for those with fi - nancial need. Zecchini discovered NAMI when fi ghting her own battles with mental health, she was in- troduced to the group while in recovery and volunteered to be a presenter after making it to a more stable place. Now, vol- unteering with NAMI is one of the tools she uses to stay grounded. “When I teach these cours- es, I get to help people un- derstand what it means to deal with mental illness. It has helped me normalize myself and my own feelings. When you are in that space, there is no logic to the thoughts. When I have to repeat what I went through as a presenter, I have a constant reminder that these things can be handled with responses other than fl ight or fi ght,” Zecchini said. Bandtra’s journey to be- coming a NAMI presenter started after the sudden death of her brother who she saw battle with schizoaffective dis- order. “[NAMI] gave me hope af- ter my brother passed away and it helps me be more supportive. Every class I teach humbles me and brings me down to earth. It’s helped me be more aware of what loved ones are feeling and how I can help,” she said. Other resources offered lo- cally through NAMI are: • Family Support Group on the second and fourth Sat- urdays of each month from 1-2:30 p.m. at Salem Hospital on the sixth fl oor of Building A. Family members and friend of those with mental health challenges are welcome. • The NAMI Marion-Polk Connection Peer Support Group, a weekly 90-minute re- covery support group program for adults living with a men- tal illness. The peer-led group provides a place where people learn from one another’s expe- rience, share coping strategies and offer mutual encourage- ment. Meetings are held every Monday from 5:15 to 6:45 p.m. at the Recovery Outreach Community Center at 2555 Silverton Road N.E. in Salem. • Family to Family, a 12- week course for family mem- bers of individuals living with severe mental illness. Presenters provide informa- tion on the clinical treatment of mental illnesses and teach the knowledge and skills that family members need to care for themselves as well as their loved ones. • In Our Own Voice is a 90-minute interactive, multi- media presentation by individ- uals living with mental illness that offers hope and provides insight into the recovery pro- cess. Presentations can be scheduled in schools, work- places or during community gatherings. “All the support programs are evidence-based,” Bandstra said. “And the focus is on two things: they are not alone and this is what can be done,” add- ed Zecchini. AWARD: ‘She is committed to doing the right things’ (Continued from Page A1) issues and she has held key leadership positions with the League of Oregon Cities, the Mid-Willamette Council of Governments and the Salem Keizer Metropolitan Planning Organization. “Her work directly con- tributed to the development of transportation and funding packages, better League [of Oregon Cities] governance and increased intergovern- mental cooperation,” said Sean O’Day, executive director of the Mid-Willamette Valley Council of Governments, in a nomina- tion form. One of Clark’s peers, May- or John McArdle, of Indepen- dence, was effusive in his praise of Clark’s statesmanship. “Real leadership isn’t easy, it often necessitates dealing with very diffi cult, challeng- ing issues, issues that others prefer to ignore – not Mayor Clark,” McArdle wrote. “She is committed to doing the right things. She operates with grace, sensitivity, passion, the highest ethical standards and is an inspi- ration to others.” Through her involvement, Clark has worked to preserve the home rule authority of cit- ies in Oregon. Her efforts have directly contributed to the de- velopment of transportation funding packages and increased intergovernmental cooperation. “This honor means so much to me because it comes from you, the people who know me, who work with me and whom I love and respect. People who share a passion for serving all people with dignity and re- spect,” said Clark in her accep- tance speech. James C. Richards was a city councilor for Bay City and was the administrative offi cer for Tillamook County. His many years of involvement in inter- governmental affairs serve as a model for others and is the standard by which nominees are evaluated. The League of Oregon Cit- ies helps city governments serve their citizens by providing leg- islative services, policy setting, intergovernmental relations, conferences and training, tech- nical assistance and publications. maze looking back in the KT 5 YEARS AGO Coming soon: more apartments In the last few years, apartments and a senior living center have been built on McGee Court.
