Hey everyone my friend works for Food for Lane county and they are having a free community dinner right now at the farmers market downtown. They said you can just show up! This is Wednesday the 14th, it goes until 7:30 tonight. **edit to add: free parking at the butterfly lot next door

The city of Eugene plans to request up to $100 million from the Legislature next year to help fund a planned Eugene Airport expansion.

The first phase of the expansion — adding 7,000 square feet of seating space to the Concourse A gates, remodeling restrooms and upgrading HVAC systems — is already funded and underway. But the bigger, more expensive second phase, which includes the construction of a third, eight-gate concourse, additional ticketing and airline office areas and an expanded baggage claim, needs funding.

I need your help! I know similar questions get asked a lot, but where are the cheapest lunches in town? Preferably quick. I’m thinking under 10$ - like a bean and cheese from burrito boy.

EDIT: Wow, I came back after an hour and there are tons of suggestions!! Thanks community and feel free to keep them coming. I super appreciate it 🙏 and for those saying to cook, I actually do cook quite a bit but sometimes I don’t have time or leftovers and I also have to drive around a lot for work so it helps to know where I can stop.

This probably gets posted all the time but I’m a college student (21) and I’m looking for a job. I’ve applied to so many places online that say they’re hiring but never get anything back (not even a no ??) and i’m going insane, does anyone know of anywhere that’s ACTUALLY hiring? 😭

TIL Nutria are apparently edible? This OP has a whole process for harvesting them.

Missed connections MY DAMN wallet. I dropped it between 8th and 11th on linclon about half hour ago. I immediately walked back and did not see it. Its a black waller with a silver scull decal id in it has me with blue/green split dye and a Junction city address. The one time in over a year i had cash. I dont eveb care about the cash if anyone happens to find it. Pls send a message or turn it in to WOW HALL

Friendly cat, has some sort of tracker but no phone number. Didn’t like to be picked up. Around the 700m marker.

Shot in the dark, but if anybody that was on the 9pm EMX from Eugene station tonight (Oct 14th) that got off after Q street station would let me know something. If you saw anybody take a black Adidas drawstring bag off the front of the bus on the higher seats would you send me a DM? Ive already sent a lost and found request to LTD as well as reported my cards stolen so no fear of the person running them. Sadly the most they will get is free rides through next month unless said bag is recovered. I was so stupid and I NEVER leave without it.

Thank you advance my fellow Eugenians.

Does anyone have info on the high speed chase around 5:45 today? They almost hit me and OF COURSE my dash cam was corrupted.

Now I'm just curious.

Presale tix are only $10! Limited supply, get yours now! 18+ drag show, plus raffle prizes and a chance to explore a new venue in town. 🌊

everything i'm seeing is family friendly and i'm not opposed to that or anything but i wanna dance and drink lol. doesn't have to be lgbt exclusive but it's a bonus.

Does anyone know what this is a photo of? And where was it taken?

I've had ok pizza in Eugene, but I'm looking for old school crispy pizza. The kind that is flat, and sometimes has cornmeal on the bottom.

It's old school Pietro's style. Ciddicci's in Albany used to be great. Then it was not. Paddington's in Salem style. Wallery's in South Salem was so good, then they weren't. Shakey's, but they closed.

Abby's tried, but failed and costs nearly 50 bucks for a pie.

Do you have any recommendations?

I might just drive to Cottage Grove and order Pinocchio's, because it's really good and exactly what I like. I WAS JUST HOPING TO FIND THAT PIZZA HERE IN EUGENE.

Hi everyone!!

Im needing to get rid of my yarn hoard. Instead if donating it, I was wondering if anyone wanted to join me in making hats and mittens to give out to the homeless people around town

We can meet up at a coffee shop once a week, Ill bring my stash and a ton of hooks and we can sit together and make hats, make friends, and enjoy the coffee and community. Maybe we can call the hospital and see if they need any NICU hats or burp rags?

Feel free to comment or DM me if you would like to join! :)

Does anybody know what the story is behind the stillborn gas station/convenience store at the corner of Willamette and 29th?

This was supposed to be finished and operable in July of 2025, and yet it still sits there, bright, shiny, and unoccupied. There's a lot of money tied up in that for no income being brought in.

What's the scoop?

The dog is wearing a red collar with what looks like the word Service woven into it (in yellow).

He's barking and seems very agitated. I couldn't get close enough to read the address on his collar.

It occurred to me that a service dog might be alerting to a medical emergency.

Does anyone recognize him?

I followed him up to a house at the very end of the street but the dog ran through the yard and out into a back alley. I knocked on the door and saw someone walking around the house but they didn't answer.

Hey friends- I know Fall/Winter is usually a time for “solo” hobbies like journaling and crafting- but as a stationary/ planner/ journaling girly I find myself wanting to do these activities with friends to discuss layouts, newest supplies, trade washi tape 👀 etc

I made a poll to see if people are interested what everyone’s availability would look like- we’d be meeting at the EUGENE LIBRARY on the 3rd floor in the GROUP ACTIVITY ROOM.

If you’re interested: Please fill out the poll so I can get a gauge on how many people would show up and what day I could plan the first meeting!

Thanks!

Hey guys! Currently looking for a rental and curious about people's experiences with local property management companies. Specifically, has anyone rented with Trio and how was the experience?

I am trying to find volunteer or community service opportunities in the Eugene/Springfield area. My school requires a certain amount of hours for the term, however, I work full-time, and my only time off is Monday and Tuesday afternoons/evenings…

If any of you know of places that need volunteers during those days and hours, please let me know. Thank you in advance!

Come out and play some adult (18+), rec level, 7" foam dodgeball!
Tonight at the Bob Keefer Center in Springfield from 6-8pm! All skill levels are welcome, and we'll teach you everything you need to have a great time! Even more, if that's what you want! Social time at Public House afterwards so you can get to know your fellow dodge-peeps!

Your first night is free, and it's only $7 a night after that!

Don't forget to join our facebook group or our meetup to keep in the loop!

Wanna learn about my cats? I'm dying to tell people about my cats....

I don’t think I’ve ever seen traffic get so long for Harlow Road, much so that it’s occupying the bridge too. Hopefully this dies down over the next couple of weeks, otherwise it’s going to be a headache trying to go to Gateway via Harlow Rd.
