Bill Gregory, Chair, Oregon State Parks Commission
In 1991 Stub was honored as an outstanding state park volunteer. His selfless work on behalf of the parks began when parks was a division of ODOT and has continued for over 30 years as the agency became a department and developed a board of commissioners.
In 1992, Stub endowed a trust fund with the Oregon Community Foundation to help sponsor and support volunteer recognition in OPRD. The Stewart Awards program was developed by a committee of staff and volunteers who decided on the categories, qualifications and recognition levels.
