If there is a cycling event
in Keizer, Sangster and wife,
Mary Ann, are likely leading
it. If a child in Keizer has
received a free helmet, there
is a good chance that the
Sangsters were the ones
checking for proper fi t.
After joining the Rotary
Club of Keizer, Sangster
organized a Ride to End
Polio as a local effort
contributing to a global goal
on the part of Rotary. He
was a champion of having a
bike repair station installed at
the Keizer Civic Center, and
has plans for another. His big
project in the coming years
is to replace the bike racks
at McNary High School
– the ones on campus now
are the same ones he hitched
his bikes to when he was a
student there. Sangster is so
synonymous with cycling in
Keizer that former Keizer
mayor Lore Christopher
appeared in a tribute video
sporting a bicycle helmet.
Cycling might be a
passion, but Sangster has
been a member and chair
of the Keizer Planning
Commission, Keizer’s voice
on the Salem-Keizer Area
Transportation Study and
a member of the Oregon
Traffi c Safety Commission.
“Hersch is the right choice
because he is a longtime
advocate for the city. He is
the guy that gets thing done
and makes things happened,”
said Matt Lawyer, a former
colleague of Sangster on the
planning commission.
“Hersch
serves
our
community with dedication,
enthusiasm generosity and
kindness,” said current Mayor
Cathy Clark. “He’s put heart
and soul into everything he’s
done.”
In addition to crowning a
new fi rst citizen, Dave Walery
was tapped as Merchant of
the Year, Tammy Ready was
presented the Service to
Education Award and Jeremy
Turner was honored with the
President’s Award.
Walery, owner of Walery’s
Premium Pizza in West
Salem, was nominated by his
employees at the restaurant.
The typically gruff Walery
was holding back tears
when he found out who

Think of it as an 80,000 square
foot carpeting job. That’s what’s
in the works for a new artifi cal
turf field at McNary High
School. The project, which got
underway in earnest last year, is
expected to begin work June
1, said Bill McNutt, project
manager.

nominated him. When he
took the stage, he called out
the many members in the
audience who were part of
his “team” of volunteers.
“I think there are more
people in this room who are
on it than those who aren’t,”
he said.
Walery is a driving
force behind almost every
Christmas-related
event
in Keizer, which earned
him the nickname “Mr.
Christmas” around town.
He has also been one of the
lead organizers of the annual
KeizerFEST
for
several
years. Walery is a former
fi rst citizen himself and a
two-time recipient of the
President’s Award.
Tammy Ready was moved
to tears when her name was
announced as the recipient
of the Service to Education
Award. Ready is a consistent
presence in conversations
about providing for McNary
students and athletes and
a regular presenter in the
school’s College and Career
Center.
“Danielle
Bethell
is
the reason I got started
volunteering
in
Keizer.

When people ask me why
I volunteer so much, my
answer is, ‘Why don’t you?’”
Ready said. “Volunteering is
one thing you can always do
no matter what. Time is what
matters.”

Older children will have
another option when it comes
to playing baseball. And that
option marks the return of
an old favorite, Babe Ruth
baseball. It’s been since 2004
that Babe Ruth was last played
in the Keizer-Salem area.

The student sit-in last Friday
at McNary High was staged
to support teachers who
have been working without a
contract since the beginning of
the school year. While teachers
have found their own ways to
voice protests, the student sit-
in was the fi rst of its kind in
the ongoing dispute over the
teacher contract in the Salem-
Keizer School District.
Top fi refi ghter honored
was selected by Keizer
Chamber President Jonathan
Thompson to receive this
year’s President’s Award.
Thompson cited Turner
for his willingness to step up
and fi ll needs regardless of the
challenges at hand, whether
it’s repairing a garden at the
Keizer branch of the Boys
& Girls Club or moving 14
barrels of donated food – on
a single trailer – to a sorting
station.
“I hope that I contribute
enough to the community. It
was great to come here fi ve
years ago and just jump in,”
Turner said.
