SUMMARY:Dave Seymour - Polson Museum Pioneer of the Year
DESCRIPTION:The Polson Museum is pleased to announce that longtime Harborite Dave Seymour will be honored as their Pioneer of the Year at a 2:00 p.m. reception Sunday\, August 26 at the museum. The public is invited to attend this celebration which will be held in the Railroad Camp Locomotive Shop.\n\n\n\nA Harborite since the mid-1950s\, Dave was born April 6\, 1937 in Tonasket\, Washington. As a youngster\, Dave and his family moved around Washington following his father Everett's various calls as a Methodist minister\, which ultimately led to Hoquiam just as Dave was entering his senior year in high school. Graduating in 1955\, Dave soon pursued an education degree at Seattle Pacific University\, working the Harbor mill circuit during summers at Grays Harbor Veneer\, Blagen's and Saginaw Shingle.\n\n\n\nFrom a very young age\, Dave exhibited a passion for music\, picking out tunes from the family's pump organ and singing hymns from the pulpit of his father's church. Throughout his school years\, Dave found friends through choirs and bands and especially through barbershop quartets. Dave is one of the Harbor's dedicated champions of the barbershop singing\n\ntradition having actively participated in quartets throughout the region since high school.\n\n\n\nFollowing in the footsteps of his mother Dorothy\, Dave began a 37-year teaching career  - nearly all of it at A.J. West elementary. Following retirement\, Dave never lost his calling as a teacher\, with an additional 18 years of substitute work and a continuous role teaching Sunday school from 1960 through today.\n\n\n\nDave's volunteerism is especially notable with 20 years as a docent at the Polson\, always ready to greet guests with a smile and a passion for Harbor history. Dave has also volunteered extensively at the Pacific Care Center\, Harbor Home Health and Hospice and Montesano Methodist Church.\n\n\n\nWe invite the public to please join us in celebrating Dave and his years of service to our community.
