Diane Peek, June Stanley, Kelly Hamil
- June Stanley was recognized at the annual Christmas party for Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) for Red River County on December 7, 2022. Her certificate of appreciation was presented by Kelly Hamil, project coordinator on right and Diane Peek, advisory council president on left.
- June has volunteered at Bogata Public Library/Museum since it started in 2000. She served as Secretary/Treasurer for many years. In the eleven years that she has been a volunteer with RSVP, she has volunteered over 550 hours of her time.
- We are sure that the eleven years she volunteered before becoming a member of RSVP, she would at least have logged that many hours for a total of 1,100 hours. She certainly deserves lots of appreciation for such faithful service! June will be moving to Portland, Oregon soon to be close to her daughter and family! Bogata will certainly miss her! We wish her the best!
