The Spirit of Bohemia Mining Days is alive!On May 20, the Bohemia Mining Days, Inc. board of directors posted an announcement on its Facebook page stating this year’s celebration was cancelled. The resulting ground swell of community-wide pride and passion for the much anticipated summertime tradition rallied past production team members to step in and save it. One week later, the Spirit of BMD Production Team mobilized to ensure the 65th anniversary of the Bohemia Mining Days festival will be celebrated in Coiner Park on its traditional weekend, Friday, July 19 and Saturday,July 20. Celebration Coordinator Matthew Hewlett, a former BMD board member and local businessman, leads the herculean task of organizing a two-day event in six weeks with no seed money. It is community-driven endeavor that is completely independent of the Bohemia Mining Days, Inc. organization. “This event belongs to the people of Cottage Grove and there is so much support for our efforts,” Hewlett said. “Since its inception, in 1959, the passion and generosity of Grovers has ensured its survival. Normally, it takes the BMD board a full year to plan the festival because of all its moving parts. Yet we are hopeful we can rally the event’s annual sponsors and an army of motivated volunteers to help us make it happen this year.” A Town Hall meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, June 5, at 6 p.m. in the Community Center Shepherd Room.

Over the last year, you have helped to spread the story of Constructing a Brighter Future, a program that allowed high school students to build shelters for the unhoused. We have big news. The program received amazing news and was awarded 2.6 million to expand to more districts and middle schools. With the expansion comes a new name: Team Oregon Build. As the program expands, it is not just about constructing shelters anymore. Schools now have the opportunity to build auxiliary components such as garden beds, chairs, and picnic tables. This expansion not only broadens the scope of the program but also enhances the learning experience for the students.Since launching ~10 weeks ago, we have received 132 order requests from 40 unique participating high and middle schools across Oregon, representing nearly 4,000 students building ‘8x16 transitional housing units, 8x16 storage sheds, 8x8 sheds, and shelter accessories such as tables, chairs, and flower boxes.Jesse Quinn is the Community Engagement Director of Lane Workforce Partnership
