Hey there, I just moved to Albany but I'm out of the state for the month and have been having a hard time finding places through research. Most of the gyms that come up are in Salem.

Would love to find a gym with an emphasis on muay thai and BJJ if possible but I'd take what I can get.

Any recommendations?

Looking for recommendations.

First of all, I completely understand using fireworks to celebrate the 4th — it is all in good fun. However, every night since the 4th, and often around 11 pm and later, I have continued to hear fireworks. One just went off at 1:15 AM on 7/19.

My dog is petrified of fireworks and each time one goes off, I spend a while trying to help them relax. It has been a frustrating nightly occurrence.

Again, I understand fireworks on the 4th are all in good fun. But I do not fully understand continuing to blast them 2 weeks later. I would ask that if you have leftover fireworks and you are insistent on using them, that you use them at a decent hour.

I'm returning from my summer job in Yellowstone in early August. I'll be starting classes at LBCC come October, so I need a weekend, and evening gig. I have hospitality and restaurant experience but I'm really willing to do any job! As long as it's after 5/6pm...

The job search online hasn't produced anything helpful. I have good references and work history, but I rarely get replies. So I'm hoping for

-Open Interviews?

-Anywhere people personally know is hiring?

-In person resume drops/applications?

Anything even remotely helpful would be appreciated.

Message me with a description and I'll be happy to return them to you or stash them along the path somewhere if you don't feel comfortable. No judgement.

EDIT

They've been returned to the owner

Specifically looking for a place that can do prints of watercolor-type art on heavy matte paper. Thanks!

I’m moving down to Albany for work and am looking for a 2 bed place, max I’m looking to spend is 1600 monthly but where I’m out of state looking at apartments is a bit tricky. Any good suggestions? Or even places to avoid would be greatly appreciated

I ask as part of a linguistic study covering this topic!
Examples could include things like SC10, JTown, Corn Valley or 'The Non' (never mind how common they are)...

The title says it all.. Want to know what daycare expense look like in corvallis and albany area? I believe Albany is a little cheaper? And are there any daycares that open in the weekends? Any information appreciated.

Thank You!

My son got a jury summons. He’s disabled, autistic, non verbal with strangers and only leaves the house if my husband or I am with him.

I tried to respond to try to get him dismissed but I messed it up. When I try to call the message says you can’t leave a voice asking for dismissal except due to age. I have no idea how to see about getting him excused. Or can I or my husband be with him if he shows up and asks for dismissal?

He’s capable of so much, just not this and I don’t know what to do because I don’t want him to be in trouble.

Hello,

I'm moving to the area soon and I'm looking for a doggy playgroup for my pups. I've included a screenshot of what my current trainers offer. Bonus if they also offer boarding

Hello! Does anyone host yoga in a park? I joined an outdoor yoga class when I was in Hawaii, and it was spectacular. I'm hoping to find someone here in Albany who hosts outdoor yoga.

Editing to add a start time of after 5:30 would be great.

Was just wondering after an interview how long does it take to hear back? I applied for several positions (reception or admitting) I got an interview for one did about a week ago. Got denied for another position but haven't heard back from the one I interviewed for.

By the time we got through the house to the front yard the suspect was gone.

My friend’s cat is missing in the North Albany area. Near the North Albany Elementary School.

We're trying to gauge genuine interest before making a final decision.

If LaRussell performed in the Willamette Valley on Friday, July 24, would you actually buy a ticket and make the trip?

If yes, let me know: • What city you'd be coming from. • How much you'd realistically pay for a ticket. • Would you come alone or bring friends?

This isn't an announcement yet—we're just trying to see if there's enough local support to make it happen. Honest feedback is appreciated.
