The fall outdoor burn-
ing season will open on
Friday, Oct. 15, for many
Lane County residents.
The season, originally set
to start Oct. 1, was delayed
by the Lane County Fire
Defense Board and the
Oregon Department of
Forestry (ODF) due to a
dry and warmer than av-
erage weather outlook.
“Recent rain has been
beneficial to reducing
wildfire danger across Or-
egon,” said Lane Region-
al Air Protection Agency
(LRAPA) Spokesperson
Travis Knudsen. “But the
current forecast is dry,
sunny, and warm.”

from Disneyland, Brian
Sandahl, and CROW’s
Artistic Director, Melanie
Heard.
“The displays will be lit
up with spooky lighting
and packed with tons of
fun props you’ll have to
see to believe,” said Heard.
“They will be family
friendly, with a big dash of
seasonal humor added in.”
Starting on Oct. 7, 8
and 9, and continuing on
Thursday, Friday and Sat-
urday nights from 5 to 8
p.m. through the end of
the month, CROW will be
offering original parking
lot radio programming.
“Come and park your
car in our lot, and tune
into the station specified
on the sign on the front of
our building,” said Heard.
“Our kids and adults will
tell you some hair-raising
stories, mixed with clever
Halloween jokes, and per-
haps a few groaners. We
will also be mentioning
the names of some local
sponsors, so let us know if
you want to sponsor one of
the jokes.”
The deadline for spon-
sorship is Sept. 30, and
sponsorships are $250
each.
The idea to decorate
the CROW
building
for Halloween was sug-
gested by CROW Board
Member Amy Owens.
“It will be nice for fami-
lies and the general public
to have a destination that
they can go to and enjoy
some Halloween fun,” said
Heard.
CROW’s Technical Di-
rector Chris Owens of-
fered to figure out the ra-
dio broadcasting logistics.
And from there, the idea
took off.
“CROW hopes you’ll
bring your friends and
family to see the window
displays, and to tune in to
“K-R-O-W” in the parking
lot,” Heard said.
The CROW Center for
the Performing Arts is
located at 3120 Highway
101.
The radio program will
be about 30-ish minutes in
length.
“We may not be able to
do our big Haunted Maze
this year, but this IS some-
thing we can do, and we
hope it will make you grin
like a Jack-o-lantern.”

book or visit crowkids.
