Good morning, Keizer.

This will be an exciting several weeks in Keizer.

On Friday, June 9, almost 500 members of the McNary High School Class of 2023 will receive their diplomas in the Pavillon at the Oregon State Fairgrounds.

Planning is underway to mark Keizer’s 40th birthday as a city with a two-day celebration at the Keizer Civic Center on June 16 and 17.

Congress passed and President Biden signed a debt ceiling deal that averts economic disaster. Whew. That was close.

Have great week….
