2021 Ken Morrow Award Dinner Honoring Keith Rogers
December 3, 2021
Honoring Decades of Public Defense Service
Please join the OCDLA Board of Directors in honoring Keith Rogers with the Ken Morrow Lifetime Achievement Award.
Keith is the 18th recipient of the Ken Morrow Lifetime Achievement Award, which dates back to 2001. The award was created by OCDLA following the passing of renowned Eugene attorney Ken Morrow to recognize the lifelong commitment and significant achievements of attorneys who have worked in the defense community, and those who have made important contributions to the administration of justice.
In selecting Keith to receive the award, the board recognized his many years of public defense advocacy, first at Metropolitan Public Defenders in Portland, then at MPD in Hillsboro, and finally at Multnomah Defenders, Inc., where he was Executive Director until his retirement earlier this year.
What's Included?
Cocktail reception, dinner, and a short live auction to benefit OCDLA's legislative work.
Covid-19 Safety Measures
On November 4, 2021, the OCDLA Board of Directors met to discuss results of the member survey regarding Covid-19 protocols for this event. Based on the results, the board decided that attendees must show proof of full vaccination against Covid-19 or results of a negative test taken within 72 hours of the event. All attendees must be masked in accordance with state and hotel policies, unless actively drinking or eating. Tables will be set for 6 seats rather than 8 in order to adequately social distance for the event. Guests wishing to facilitate the check-in process may email their vaccination card to OCDLA, or please be prepared to show it to enter the ballroom.
