Help Us Spring into Fall It has been an amazing summer at Campbell Center and we are looking for a fabulous fall. This guide is filled with activities that will enrich and enhance your life. I invite you to gain information, learn a new skill, challenge yourself, make new friends and just have a good time! Mark your calendars on November 14 for Campbell’s annual Holiday Bazaar. We need your help to make our only fundraiser a success. Can you: bake a pie, create a craft, donate something, knit a scarf, grow some plants, bring us some treasures, or solicit a donation from a business you frequent? Inquire at the front desk for ways you can help. Monies raised are being used to expand our kitchen. A grateful thank you to Rexius Eugene that has graciously donated a storage unit to help us prepare for our expansion. May the fall be with you, Diane Sconce Campbell Center Program Supervisor

Making creative crafts ... and sawdust Walking into Campbell Center Woodshop, in a separate building just off the main center, means smelling the sawdust and hearing powerful machines cut and polish wood. It means seeing people ask each other’s advice, get help on projects, brainstorm new ideas or sometimes just work on their own. Whether Eugene adults want to carve boxes, create chess sets, make flutes or invent new toys for the grandkids, the Woodshop has the tools and machines to help them out – and the knowledgeable volunteers to cement the deal. Woodshop supervisor Boyd Brumley, who’s been using the space off and on for 20 years, makes many things – and is so used to answering questions about what he does there that he often whips out the response, “I like to make sawdust.”
where they can’t have a shop, or who want to create puzzles, furniture, instruments and more in a space where they can rely on each other to answer questions.
He says it with a smile, though, and is ready to answer questions from everyone who comes to the shop, whether they’re taking the Basic Woodworking class, the Women-Only Woodworking class or the Woodshop Orientation, or working during the Woodshop’s drop-in hours, 9:00 am-3:00 pm M-F ($2 drop-in fee).
“It’s fun to be creative three or four days a week,” says Rik Bogen, who makes shakuhachi flutes at the Woodshop. Bogen says he enjoys bringing in different kinds of wood to experiment with (the Woodshop has a bit of wood, but most people bring their own) for his flutes. Working in the Campbell Center Woodshop is “for fun and recreation,” he says. “There’s a treasure trove here of information and good ideas.”
Brumley says the Woodshop is a good resource, especially for people who retire and move into places
