📰 News we're reading

• It's simple to toss something in the trash in Lane County. From there it gets messy. (lookouteugene-springfield.com) — Lane County's stalled CleanLane recycling plant and long-haul trash trucking are shaping how much Creswell residents pay for garbage service and how often rural transfer stations stay open. A major hauler says using an out-of-county landfill keeps Creswell rates lower, while county officials warn the delay and lost fees threaten recycling goals, budgets, and climate targets.
   

• Vikings Dominate Bulldogs; Woahink Lake Invitational; Mapleton Cross Country; Ducks and Beavers Post Wins (kcfmradio.com) — Creswell High's Bulldogs took an early lead but were overwhelmed in a 66-18 pre-league football loss to Siuslaw, which piled on four first-quarter touchdowns and led big by halftime. Local fans can still take heart as league play begins soon, with lessons from this tough road matchup likely shaping how Creswell adjusts on both sides of the ball.
