PHOTO BY PAUL NEEVEL PLANTS VEGGIES BUY LOCAL , BUY LANE ‘SUPPORT LOCALLY GROWN’ CAMPAIGN FRUIT JAM STARTS Traci Treadwell After nearly a decade of office jobs in Newport, Traci Treadwell discovered the joys of restaurant service at Mo’s in 1999. “It was a lot more fun,” she admits. “Sometimes it got really busy.” A single mother of two, Treadwell moved to Eugene in the spring of 2002 to start college at LCC. “My focus seems to be ethnic studies and history,” she says. A year ago this week, she began work at the Oregon Electric Station. “I serve dinners four nights a week,” she says. “I really like it — every table is so different. I work hard to be considerate to the needs of our diners.” — Paul Neevel CHOW! JULY 3, 2003 11
