Image of Life, 484-0024 Saturday Markel's Doug Moore (Chairman of the Board), Howard Wade (Manager) and Ilene English (Assistant Manager) celebrate the move to East Park and West Park this Saturday. Saturday Market’s Moving! Eugene's oldest crafts, entertainment, and food fair, the Saturday Market, is moving from its present location at the parking lot on Oak between 7th and 8th. Beginning Saturday, November 27, the Market will move south a block to oc cupy the small parks on either side of Oak Street. Saturday Market offers hand crafted articles sold by the people who made them. Due to the recession, higher costs, and a May fire that destroyed all the equipment owned by the Market, its economic future was looking pretty grim. Ilene English and Howard Wade, staff coordinators for the Market, recognized the desperate situation. The Market needs a good Christmas,” Ilene says. 'To have it, we've got to get out of this parking lot.” Last year the Christmas Market paid $500 a day for the parking lot. This year they couldn’t get it during the week at any price. The plight of the Market came to the attention of longtime Eugene civic leader Maury Jacobs, who asked English and Wade to send a letter to downtown merchants and businessmen stressing the urgent need to move the market and asking for support. They needed money, it's true, but they also wanted to know if the downtown businesses cared about helping the Market keep going. Response was good. Downtown businesses accepted Saturday Market's need for a less expensive, more aesthetic, bet ter business environment; and local government representatives agreed to expedite the process of the move. The Eugene Downtown Commission has been great,” says English. They've given some money for the move and for advertising the Christmas Market. The City has agreed to a 3-month trial and to work out problems if they arise. Sweetest of all, the County will only charge the Market $25 a day for the 125 spaces in the parks. This last is not only good news for the financially depleted Saturday Market, it is also good news for anyone renting booth space for the Christmas Market in the Park, December 18-23. An 8x8' lot costs $50 for the 6-day fair plus 10%, sales commission, which puts it within the range of the artisans Saturday Market tries to support. There are even a few smaller booth spaces available as well. This joint enterprise between Saturday Market and Eugene's downtown businesses and local governments points out the value to us all of working together cooperatively to solve our economic problems. Come celebrate at Saturday Market's new 8th and Oak location this week. -Lois Wadsworth Boogie Music James Thornbury Band rocks The Brass Whale, Florence, Oregon, to night and tomorrow night from 9:30-1:30 am.
