Civic Stadium, built in 1938 as a WPA project in Eugene, Oregon, is a rare historic resource and is on the National Register of Historic Places. This classic wooden grandstand, which seats about 7000, has been a community catalyst for generations, but now is threatened with demolition. Its story is the story of countless cultural heritage sites around the world, of which some of which have been protected and many have been lost. Whatever happens to it, we intend to make a documentary film about the place and its community significance so that future generations will know what we had.

I just heard from Pam Berrian, Eugene’s Telecommunications & Cable Program Manager that she still has $20,000 available in their filmmaker equipment fund. Please note that this pool of money must go towards the purchase of telecommunications equipment. Pam and her department are big supporters of the film industry and it would be a shame to see this money not get spent on a film or TV project.
