Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints:
"After discussing the needs of the
food bank with Marion Polk Food Share
President and CEO Rick Gaupo, local
Church leaders made a request for
the donation. Keizer Stake President
Langdon Smith talked about how mem-
bers of the congregations fast two meals
each month and donate the cost of those
meals for the poor and needy. We make
this donation to help share our bounty to
our brothers and sisters (of any faith) in
need. This is the fourth truckload of food
and supplies the Church has donated
locally since COVID. The truck delivery
was originally scheduled for Tuesday but
humanitarian needs in Louisiana made
it necessary to postpone a day. The
Church has donated thousands of truck-
loads of food the last couple years. The
driver of the truck said he has logged
over 500,000 miles the last three years.
Beginning September 27th AWARE
will open in a new location at 154
Harrison St while construction contin-
ues at the old location. Donations can
be made at marionpolkfoodshare.org/
aware-fi re-relief/. "

The solar panels were installed and
functional during the summer this year.
While the college will pay for power
during winter months with low solar
energy production, extra power produced
during summer months will be credited
back to the college and make the costs
nearly zero.
With this grant awarded and the
installation now complete, the Ag Hub is
the college's fi rst Net Zero structure.

School is back and for the fi rst time,
Chemeketa Community College stu-
dents have the opportunity to use the
state-of-the-art Ag Hub. The fi nishing
touches were put on the agriculture com-
plex earlier this month and some of the
many features include a greenhouse,
outdoor pavilion and photovoltaic pan-
els that supply energy and make the Ag
Hub a Net Zero Building.
The goal of the Net Zero Agricultural
Complex project was to transform the
14,500 square foot Academic Building
within
Chemeketa’s
Agricultural
Complex into a Net Zero Energy build-
ing. In March, Portland General Electric
awarded the college $117,000 to install
photovoltaic panels.
Adding photovoltaic panels to the
Ag Hub marks a signifi cant milestone
toward Chemeketa's goal of achieving
net climate neutrality and supports the
college’s promise to the community
to act “with personal and institutional
accountability for the responsible use
