Good morning, Medford.

Downtown Medford is buzzing with art and music as Art in Bloom returns for its 20th anniversary with over 60 vendors, live performances, and community activities spread across Lithia Commons and nearby streets—families enjoy food trucks, chalk art, and interactive kids’ activities. The free festival continues today from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Phoenix High School held its Bloom and Bargain Bash on Saturday to raise funds for its sparrow Emiliano, a 2-year-old with epilepsy and visual impairment, organized by junior Aaron Chavez.

Vendors rented parking spots to sell items while the lot fees went to support the fundraiser.

Firefighters completed a 22-acre prescribed underburn in the Ashland Watershed on Thursday and secured fire lines later that day.

On Friday morning, ignitions continued below the Fell on Knee Trail moving toward the Wonder Trail—residents likely noticed increased smoke in the area.

Families from across the country have gathered in Medford for the Southern Oregon Open basketball tournament—193 teams are competing with players from grade 5 to varsity and games are held at various local venues through today.

Kids Unlimited executive director Tom Cole said the event continues to grow and benefits underserved youth.
