PAGE A6, KEIZERTIMES, AUGUST 28, 2020 SPEECH, continued from Page A1 however, he was forced to break from routine. “During a typical year, I would go through my speech in the morning. Then, all the seniors would go through a practice ceremony to make sure everything would run smoothly. This year, that was obviously impossible,” Jespersen said. While Jespersen believes that all seven of his speeches were similar in delivery, Kirkwood and Alvarado both said they got more comfortable with their talks in the latter part of the day. “I defi nitely felt more comfortable as the day went on,” Kirkwood said. “My last few were better than my fi rst few. I think I got better with practice.” “I was really nervous in my fi rst speech. It took me some time to get comfortable. I think my best one was my fourth speech, because I knew exactly what to expect,” Alvarado added. “But I still wanted to maintain the same enthusiasm with every speech.” All students and faculty were wearing masks during the ceremony, but speakers were allowed to take off their mask when they were at the microphone. Alvarado elected to speak with his mask on for the fi rst go-around, but then decided to speak with it off for the remainder of the day. “I couldn’t salivate while I was wearing my mask so I felt like I was getting tongue-tied,” Alvarado said. Alvarado started preparing for his speech in May, practicing two to three times a day, thinking that he would be giving his speech in June. McNary even taped a virtual ceremony in early-June in case they couldn’t hold graduation ceremonies in person. When it was announced in July that McNary would be having multiple 40-minute graduation ceremonies, Alvarado felt like he needed to edit his speech to make it shorter. “I spent a lot of time cutting my speech down. I didn’t want to go over the time limit,” Alvarado said. Kirkwood also said that he had to cut his original speech down from 12 minutes to 4-5 minutes. “My original speech was quite a bit longer. My wife was instrumental in helping me condense it into a shorter amount of time,” Kirkwood said. With just under an hour in- between ceremonies, Jespersen, Kirkwood and Alvarado didn’t have a lot of down time during their 12-hour day. Fortunately, the McNary Athletic Booster Club provided lunch and dinner, and made sure the speakers were staying hydrated on a 90-degree day. “We were well taken care of. It’s our responsibility to give those kids and parents the best experience possible, so it was good that we didn’t have to worry about being hungry or thirsty,” Jespersen said. Despite the hours of preparation and repetitions during the day, the experience was well worth it in the end, especially for Kirkwood. “I value goodbyes because they are special moments where it might be the last FACE OFF, continued from Page A1 in support services is that solutions to most problems are unique to a specifi c com- munity. “It’s been a recurring theme in the work of the task force that we can bring ex- pertise, but it’s the individual communities that tell us what works best for them. What works in McMinnville or Ashland might not work in a rural area,” she said. In some ways, Ro- land-Schwartz was drawn into the city council race as a result of the pandemic and council meetings gaining more visibility. And the pre- cautions that arose to combat COVID-19 certainly im- memory you have of someone. I felt robbed of goodbyes with all these kids I have made relationships with when school was canceled,” Kirkwood said. “It meant a lot that I got the chance to bid my farewell to them because that might be their last of memory of me.” pacted collecting signatures to place her name on the ballot. “There were days when we were driving around to peo- ple’s homes and they would bring out a pen to sign the petition. It felt a little weird, but someone signing the pe- tition would always direct us to someone else around the corner. It was good because I got to know a lot of the neighborhoods I hadn’t visit- ed before,” Roland-Schwartz said. She hopes to capitalize on some of her newfound cam- paign connections if elected to the council in November. “I think one of the coun- cil’s roles is to help residents understand how quality of life and the decisions that are being made in Keizer are connected very intrinsically,” she said. While Roland-Schwartz was born and raised in rural Lane County, her roots in the community stretch back much further. Her grand- mother’s family moved to the area when it was still most- ly farms and lived as renters while working in hops fi elds. “I feel a thread connecting me to this area and it’s where I’m raising my kids. That’s what makes me want to make it a better place,” she said. Roland-Schwartz lives in Keizer with her husband, Sam, and three children, Lee, Quen- tin and Ada.
