EUGENE, Ore. - Madison Baker has been on stage since she was 10.

"This is Sheldon Theatre," she said backstage at Sheldon High School, "and it's my home away from home."

Already one of the top vocal performers at her school, Baker is thinking about her future.

"My huge dream is to be on Broadway," she said.

For now, the good news is she will ahve to settle for an equally well-known stage.

"I'm performing in the National Honor Series at Carnegie Hall in February of this year," she said.

Baker got the gig after auditioning last year. She will be one of a handful of the top teen vocalists in the U.S. and Canada to sing soprano at the famous concert hall.

Her choir director at Sheldon, Nancy Anderson, said she's not surprised her top pupil was selected.

"She just sparkles: her face, her eyes. She's just always on," Anderson said. She said Baker is the first Eugene 4J School District student ever selected to take part in the event.

And in an industry with some of the toughest competition, Baker's just glad she's getting a moment to shine.

Most school districts and colleges share school delay and closure information via the FlashAlert system. Most try to get closures posted by 6:30 a.m.

The school closures are updated regularly on KVAL.com.

"This is to ensure the most current weather conditions are assessed," Eugene 4J School District says on the district website. "Decisions are made districtwide and are the same for every 4J school."

EUGENE, Ore. - For the estimated 16 million Americans with gluten sensitivity, dining out can be a challenge.

But more restaurants in Oregon are expanding their menu to include gluten-free alternatives.

Gluten is a protein found in wheat that can trigger Celiac disease and other problems in certain people.

Now, folks who can't eat the regular breads and buns have more choices in Eugene from both local and national chains.

Subway has a new program that's gone statewide, the first of it's kind in the country.

You can now get that BLT gluten-free. Subway is also offering gluten-free brownies as regular menu items.

And it takes more than ingredients to keep gluten out of your footlong.

"We always clear our work area, make sure it has no crumbs; it's crumb free," said Aimee Coller, manager of the Subway at Barger Drive and Highway 99.
