A perspective from Oregon’s mid-Willamette Valley

On stage, but no applause

Written June 4th, 2014 by Hasso Hering

These teenagers were hanging out on the stage in Albany’s Monteith Riverpark the other day. They weren’t doing any harm, as far as I could see while having  a snack at one of the picnic tables nearby. Still, I’m not sure this stage is the best place for skateboarding or jumping up and down.
