WHOVILLE IN THE EASTERN WETLANDS OF WEST EUGENE

Whoville moved from downtown to the Wetlands on Wallis and 3rd Street in mid May of 2014.  They moved to four different pieces of public land in that area during the next few weeks.  When the camp was evicted from Eastern end of 3rd Street on June 8, Nathan (the camp’s “leader”) was arrested and Whoville did not again come together to form a Protest Camp until the fall of 2014.  The protesters scattered to illegal camp sites all over town and although the issues of our unhoused going without restroom facilities or safe shelter was not in public view, the problem was only worsened again by Whoville’s closure.
