Earlier this month, the Gresham Optimist Club recognized outstanding police officers at the Annual Respect for Law Banquet. Fifty-five people were on hand to honor the Respect for Law Officers from Fairview, Gresham, Portland and Troutdale. John Pemberton from Fairview, David Schmidt from Gresham, Treavis Law from Portland and Matt Jordan from Troutdale were honored this year.
The program was held at the Spaghetti Factory in Clackamas and organized by Fred and Teresa Wallace and Jim Slauson. Thanks to Jean Jensen, Gresham Optigraph Editor for the picture and story.
We love stories about your Optimist Club. Please tell us one and we'll add it to the website.
