Time gets away and my head keeps spinning! I had <br /> wanted to do more extensive research and provide you with as much information as possible. Needing to do that is what <br /> has delayed me, so in the interest of your deadline I will just have to be brief. <br /> First off, you called to request permission to use your photographs of Owen Rose and Hendricks Rhododendron Gardens. <br /> The answer to that is an emphatic YES! Please do. We are happy to be featured in your book, which sounded to me like <br /> a fabulous resource for garden enthusiasts. <br /> The contact information for both gardens is .... <br /> City of Eugene <br /> Parks and Open Space Division <br /> 1820 Roosevelt Blvd <br /> Eugene, OR 97402 <br /> 541-682-4800 <br /> http://www.ci.eugene.or.us/PW/PARKS/index.htm <br /> Directions to Owen Rose Garden: <br /> I-5 (headed North or South) take exit #194B, merging onto I-105. Take OR-99 N exit toward W. Eugene. Immediately <br /> turn right on Madison, take an immediate right on W. 5th, and then an immediate left on N. Jefferson which leads into <br /> Owen Rose Garden. <br /> Directions to Hendricks Park: <br /> I-5 headed south take exit #194 and follow signs to the University of Oregon. I-5 headed north take exit #192. Drive <br /> into town on Franklin Blvd and turn south on Orchard St. Turn left on 19th Ave, right on Fairmount Blvd., left on Summit <br /> Ave. Summit Ave climbs the hill into Hendricks Park. <br /> Hendricks park has a fledgling friends group, but for sake of longevity of your book I don't think their contact information <br /> should be listed. <br /> The City offers a donation program at these two gardens, as well as throughout our parks system. We are currently <br /> working on a web site redesign and information will be available about donation opportunities on that site (address listed <br /> above) by January 1, 2004. <br /> If you have any further questions or are in need of additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me. My <br /> information is below. Again, I apologize for the delay, I hope that this information does not reach you too late. <br /> Thank you for your support of our gardens, Carrie <br /> Carrie Peterson <br /> Park Development Coordinator <br /> City of Eugene—Parks&Open Space Planning <br /> 1820 Roosevelt Blvd, Eugene,OR 97402 <br /> phone-(541)682-4907 fax-(541)682-4882 <br /> carrie.a.peterson@ci.eugene.or.us <br /> 1 <br />
