ROGUE RIVER — When the Fielder Mountain Fire threatened hundreds of homes in the town of Rogue River in August, Michael Bollweg could see a plume of smoke like a mushroom cloud from where he was miles away in Grants Pass.
"When you see a mushroom cloud, you know that it's not good," he said.

On a night when the Grants Pass defense posted its first shutout in four years, the Cavemen offense got a much-needed boost of energy with the return of senior quarterback Jordan Rossetta.
After entering the game in the second quarter, Rossetta threw three touchdown passes in the second half as Grants Pass clobbered Sprague 35-0 in Friday’s non-league football game at Mel Ingram Field.

To fabric and textile artist Bonnie Campanoli, there’s only one way to adequately display clothing and fashion: on a live model.
“Clothing really needs to be seen on somebody, and moving,” she says. “Clothing on the wall or a static display just doesn’t cut it.”
That philosophy is the driving force behind the fall fundraiser for the Southern Oregon Guild.
