For some of us freezing temperatures an inconvenience, for others who don’t have a place to go get warm, it can be a matter of life and death.<\/p>\n
On Friday, Dec. 16, lows are predicted to be in the 20s so the Egan Warming Centers are open. They are not open Saturday, Dec. 17 and emails from the organization warn they are low on volunteers, which can lead to unsafe situations. To volunteer and help keep your fellow community members warm, go to the Egan website. There is a training for new volunteers 10:30 am, Dec. 17 <\/a>with in-person and Zoom options.<\/p>\n Lane County Human Services has compiled an extensive list of places to get warm in Eugene, Springfield, Cottage Grove, Florence and Oakridge. In addition to Egan, the Eugene Mission also additional space open during inclement weather, and Cottage Grove also has warming shelter space for freezing nights.<\/p>\n Amazon Community Center<\/strong><\/p>\n 9 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday<\/p>\n 2700 Hilyard St.<\/p>\n Petersen Barn<\/strong><\/p>\n 9 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday<\/p>\n 870 Berntzen Rd.<\/p>\n Hilyard Community Center<\/strong><\/p>\n 9 am to 5:30 pm Monday through Friday<\/p>\n 2580 Hilyard St.<\/p>\n Sheldon Community Center<\/strong><\/p>\n 8 am to 5:30 pm Monday through Friday<\/p>\n 2445 Willakenzie Rd.<\/p>\n Campbell Community Center<\/strong><\/p>\n 8:30 am to 7 pm Mondays<\/p>\n 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Tuesday through Friday<\/p>\n 155 High St.<\/p>\n Downtown Eugene Library<\/strong><\/p>\n 10 am to 8 pm Monday through Thursday<\/p>\n 10 am to 6 pm Friday through Sunday<\/p>\n 100 W. 10th Ave.<\/p>\n Bethel Branch Library<\/strong><\/p>\n 10 am to 6 pm Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday<\/p>\n Noon to 8 pm Tuesday, Closed on Sunday<\/p>\n 1990 Echo Hollow Rd.<\/p>\n Sheldon Branch Library<\/strong><\/p>\n 10 am to 6 pm Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday<\/p>\n Noon to 8 pm Tuesday, Closed on Sunday<\/p>\n 1566 Coburg Rd.<\/p>\n St. Vincent de Paul Service Station<\/strong><\/p>\n Open 7 days a week, 8:30am to 5pm<\/p>\n 456 Hwy 99<\/p>\n Open 7 days a week, 8:30 am to 5 pm<\/p>\n St Vincent de Paul\u2019s 1st<\/sup>\u00a0Place Family Center<\/strong><\/p>\n Open 7 days a week, 9 am to 5:30 pm<\/p>\n 1995 Amazon Pkwy<\/p>\n Looking Glass New Roads Center (Youth and Young Adults up through age 24)<\/strong><\/p>\n 8:30 am to 8:30 pm 7 days a week<\/p>\n 941 W. 7th Ave.<\/p>\n Eugene Mission<\/strong><\/p>\n Additional space available during Inclement Weather Protocol.
