On July 24, at the meeting of the Lake Forest Park City Council, a proclamation was made honoring civic volunteer and local poet Jean Bryant as "outstanding Citizen Poet."

Jean will be familiar to readers of the Shoreline Area News for her frequent contributions of poetry, often inspired by animal photos submitted by other readers.

Mayor Mary Jane Goss made the presentation, which refers to Jean's volunteer activities with the City, schools, and poetry.

Jean provided the winning name for the City's newest park - Whispering Willow.

The proclamation declares that Jean is being "recognized and honored for her dedication and commitment to the spirit of the community and to the City of Lake Forest Park."
