Here’s the latest from Keizertimes

Good morning.

One of the most popular stories we’ve done in recent days featured Dan Borresen, a retired McNary High School educator recently honored by the Keizer Chamber of Commerce.

In his career at McNary, he touched countless lives as a teacher, a coach, a mentor. You’ll learn some surprising details in our profile.

The Keizer City Council this week took a formal step to turn the volunteer-driven community library into a public library. Watch for our detailed report about what that means for the library – and for Keizer.

Meantime, here is some of the latest work of your local crew at Keizertimes.
