If you can’t enjoy Waldo Lake without a motor on
your boat, you’ve been sitting too close to the
exhaust. Besides, why even go there? The nearest
mall is more than 60 miles away.

CLARIFICATIONS/CORRECTIONS
In last week’s News Briefs we said West Lane
Commissioner Jay Bozievich “trailed the pack” both in
name recognition, 45 percent, and in approval ratings, with
a 16 percent favorable rating and 12 percent unfavorable. The
commish says he is actually second to last in gross
favorability and the middle of the pack in net favorability.

The Hayward Historic District is a new nonprofit
business association involving owners of Eugene City
Bakery, Prince Puckler’s, Studio One Café, Tom’s Market,
Beppe and Gianni’s, Ume Grill, Bare Body Waxing and Sun
Automotive. The mission is to promote the area’s dining and
business services as the neighborhood near campus gears
up for the 2012 Olympic Track and Field Trials. “Many of us
felt overlooked at the 2008 Olympic Trials,” says Chris
Hogle of Studio One. “This time we hope to work closely
with the university to affirm our presence during this year’s
upcoming track and field event.” Hogle can be reached at
914-5207.
