Shady Cove Picks New Logo

After 7 weeks of hard work, students from Southern Oregon University Emerging Media & Digital Arts program created 18 candidate logo designs for Shady Cove.  On Feb 26 and 28, Each student presented his/her design to a 7-member Shady Cove judging team that then selected 4 finalists (a very difficult task given that all samples were fantastic).  On March 7th, Council considered these 4 finalists and Julia Jackson’s design (shown below) that will spearhead the Shady Cove branding effort.

A big thanks to those 18 talented students who put their heart and soul into this work for Shady Cove.   May your work shine throughout the Rogue Valley and beyond.

Congratulations to Julia Jackson, a Shady Cove resident!

'Tis the Season, for Potholes

‘Tis the Season, for Potholes

The City is trying to handle numerous streets with potholes due to the rainy season and freezing temps followed by warmer weather.

Please remember there is only 1 (one) Public Works person in the City.  Thank you to Spencer and also one of our Citizens of the Year Bob Wade for volunteering to do some very hard work.

Most other agencies are also as busy such as Jackson County and ODOT as we have tried to contract with them.

We will be doing more roadwork as it gets warmer.

City's 51st Birthday Celebration was AWESOME!

City’s 51st Birthday Celebration was AWESOME!

The BDay Celebration was AWESOME!  We served ~185 plates of tacos, 160 bags of popcorn, and too many cupcakes to count.  The place was packed with kids who were crazy excited about everything (which made us old folks happy just to be around so much energy).

The DJ rocked it; the food was fantastic (never have I had a taco so good); Boy Scouts said their booth was successful.  The City raised $240 for Pack 62.  They said this money will pay for all the awards they hand out this year.  Games played:  Kid craft; Sidewalk drawing; Sack racing; Freeze Dancing and axe throwing which was jammed with people throughout.

Shady Cove Volunteers Get Things Done!

Shady Cove Volunteers Get Things Done!

Shady Cove Volunteers kicked into full swing in May, helping Jackson County Parks to address some latent maintenance issues at the Upper Rogue Regional Park.  With tools, paint supplies and muscle, the group swept thru the park rebuilding the rotted picnic tables, weed whacking, trash pickup and bbq pit cleanout.  When the crew was done, the park looked loved.  Note:  Due to a lack of supplies, there are 2 tables still to be rebuilt.  These will be restored once the supplies arrive.

As Mayor Jon Ball stated, “the hard work of volunteers is very much what Shady Cove brings to everything”.   So cheers to the great volunteers of Shady Cove!

If you would like to be part of this great team helping to beautify Shady Cove (weeding, sweeping, painting, handyman services, coordinating volunteers, etc, etc), please sign up via the City Website (under the Commissions & Committees; Volunteering tabs).  Together we can make Shady Cove a City we are all very proud of.
