MOVE OVER. IT’S THE LAW Every day, first responders take on personal risk to serve our communities and save lives. Even a routine traffic stop has become risky. The following information comes from the Oregon Department of Transportation (www.oregon.gov/ODOT) and can help keep first responders and commuters safer. There have been many cases where officers are pulled over on the side of the road when drivers have then crashed into them at high speeds. That’s why there’s a strict law in Oregon designed to help prevent these situations from happening again. The Move Over Law (ORS 811.147) states that if you are approaching any type of emergency vehicle, tow truck or roadside assistance vehicle which is stopped on the roadside with emergency lights activated, you must: • MOVE OVER into another available lane. • If you can’t safely change lanes, SLOW DOWN to a speed that is at least 5 mph below the posted or designated speed of the roadway. • In all cases, the driver must try to provide as much room as possible for the emergency vehicle, tow truck or roadside assistance vehicle. The Move Over Law is in place to help protect law enforcement officers, emergency workers, tow operators and those who routinely provide assistance to motorists along the highways. This group of dedicated professionals face a deadly threat on a daily basis: speeding and inattentive drivers. But the law also exists to protect you. The flashing lights are your cue to move over and slow down. If you are approaching the scene of a crash, carefully watch for emergency workers directing traffic and follow all of their instructions.

Crabfest 2025 was a massive success—800 tickets sold, mountains of fresh crab consumed, and a smart partnership with United Way to share the workload and amplify the impact. A quarter-century of this tradition speaks for itself! At their Monday meeting (now held at the cozier Loafers Station), President Greg Roe welcomed Governor Waugh to present several awards, including honoring Joe Vincent as "Most Passionate Rotarian." Greater Albany is fortunate to count multiple past and present District Leaders among their active membership. Under President Greg's leadership, the club feels newly energized—they've revitalized their weekly newsletter (featuring none other than Yoda, the District Dog 🐾) and are building momentum in their new meeting space. The visit wrapped up with a casual dinner with club leaders—because Rotarians know how to mix service with fellowship. #Rotary #GreaterAlbanyRotary #Crabfest #ServiceAboveSelf #District5110 #RotaryFellowship #YodaTheDistrictDogWatch video on Facebook.com

𝑻𝑯𝑰𝑹𝑫 𝑨𝑹𝑹𝑬𝑺𝑻 𝑴𝑨𝑫𝑬 𝑰𝑵 𝑭𝑹𝑬𝑬𝑴𝑶𝑵𝑻 𝑴𝑰𝑫𝑫𝑳𝑬 𝑺𝑪𝑯𝑶𝑶𝑳 𝑰𝑵𝑽𝑬𝑺𝑻𝑰𝑮𝑨𝑻𝑰𝑶𝑵 ROSEBURG, Ore. - The Douglas County Sheriff's Office has continued its investigation into reported injuries to students in the Developmental Learning Center at Fremont Middle School. During the course of the ongoing investigation, deputies reviewed additional evidence and conducted further interviews. Through that process, investigators developed information indicating that a teacher, 35-year-old Nathan Terrance Williams of Roseburg, initiated unwanted and offensive physical contact with several students in the Developmental Learning Center program between January 28, 2026, and February 6, 2026. On Wednesday, February 18, 2026, Deputies contacted Williams regarding the investigation. Williams was ultimately taken into custody and transported to the Douglas County Jail, where he was lodged on six (6) counts of Official Misconduct in the First Degree and (6) six counts of Harassment. The Sheriff’s Office has worked closely with school district administrators since the initial report, and the district has been cooperative and responsive throughout the investigation. That partnership remains ongoing as both entities continue to prioritize student safety and the well-being of those impacted by the investigation. Anyone who believes to have information related to the investigation is encouraged to contact the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office at 541-440-4471 referencing case #26-0476.
