As Keith Neu prepares to relocate this fall, The Seven Hills School is proud to recognize and celebrate his extraordinary contributions to Stinger Athletics over the past two decades with the Above and Beyond Service Award.
For more than 20 years, Keith has been a constant presence on the sidelines, faithfully documenting the moments that define Seven Hills athletics. From championship celebrations and record-breaking performances to everyday contests and unforgettable senior nights, his photography has preserved the history of countless student-athletes and teams. His work has allowed generations of Stingers and their families to relive some of their most meaningful athletic memories.
Keith's impact extended well beyond the camera. During his son's time at Seven Hills, he generously volunteered as a youth coach, helping introduce young athletes to the values of teamwork, sportsmanship, and competition that continue to define the Stinger experience.
Over the years, Keith also became one of the school's greatest historians. His encyclopedic knowledge of Seven Hills athletics, combined with his genuine passion for every team and every athlete, made him an invaluable resource and a familiar, welcoming face at events across campus.
"Keith has given so much more than photographs to Seven Hills," said Athletic Director Brandon Williams. "He has preserved our history, celebrated our athletes, and been one of the biggest supporters of Stinger Athletics for more than 20 years. Whether he was behind the camera, coaching young athletes, or sharing stories from seasons past, Keith always made our community stronger. We are incredibly grateful for everything he has done and wish him nothing but the best in this next chapter."
While Keith may be moving away from Seven Hills, the legacy he leaves behind will continue to be seen in the thousands of photographs that tell the story of Stinger Athletics. His dedication, generosity, and passion have helped shape our community, and his impact will be felt for years to come.
Thank you, Keith, for your unwavering commitment to Seven Hills. You will always be part of the Stinger family.
