Keizer church helps bring
semi load of food to MPFS
By ERIC A. HOWALD
Of the Keizerimes
Marion Polk Food Share (MPFS)
is used to getting food donations from
the community, they don’t typically
arrive by the truckload.
However, on Tuesday, March 31,
the Keizer Stake of the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints made
it happen. The effort also involved the
Salem and Monmouth Stakes of the
church and a surplus of food from the
Salt Lake City headquarters of the
global faith.
“This is a very large community
donation,” said Rick Gaupo, executive
director of MPFS. “When you’re
talking about non-industry partners,
you’re usually talking in barrels, not
truckloads. And it couldn’t arrive at a
better time.”
Keizer City Councilor Dan Kohler
was one of the spearheads in the effort
to bring the food to Marion County.
He also serves as public affairs director
for the Keizer Stake of the church.
“The
local
congregations
(throughout the nation) have donated
each month for years towards church-
wide welfare needs. The surplus reserves

above and beyond tithing,” Kohler said.
Food storage is a guiding principle
for members of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints. It’s part
of making individual families and the
church as a whole self-suffi cient. Over
the years, food storage and processing –

Martial arts studio goes online up to make masks

Keizer ATA Martial Arts is taking its lessons online and offering some free instruction.
By ERIC A. HOWALD
Of the Keizertimes
The owner of a Keizer ATA Martial
Arts is changing the way the studio does
business during the COVID-19 pandemic,
and opening up some classes to anyone
who wants to participate online.
Carson Clews, owner of the dojo since
2016, said he’s turning what was once an
in-person, group activity into an online
experience he wants to share with the
wider community.
“The thing about martial arts is that
it’s a progression,” Clews said. “All the
students – no matter their age – want to
move up to the next belt, but it means they
need feedback that helps them get there.”
Clews and his fellow instructors began
offering classes via Zoom.us, a video
conferencing site, shortly after bans on
large groups were put in place. Students
would tune in and perform skills while
Clews watched and provided guidance.
“I was worried that it wouldn’t be the
same for me or the students, but we started
getting really good feedback from our
families,” he said. “The students are still
developing skill competence even though
we had to change the class space.”
While students can’t necessarily work
with a heavy punching bag or spar with
other students, Clews guides them through
the same routines.
Now, those interested in sampling
the studios lessons can participate for
