VOLUME 7, NUMBER 77
Tuesday, April 7, 2026
Good morning, Philomath.
Today’s newsletter begins with a gallery from Saturday morning’s Community Easter Egg Hunt at the rodeo grounds. We have the latest public safety information in Philomath Police Log and Philomath Fire and Rescue Calls. In sports, we have a feature and gallery on the boys golf team, who played yesterday at Trysting Tree. The boys volleyball team was in action Monday at Western Christian. From the weekend, we have a report on the baseball team’s game Saturday at Pendleton. In partner content, Oregon is preparing for the potential of its warmest year on record. — Brad Fuqua, Publisher/Editor
