Find out what’s going on in your community

Staying on top of what’s happening in the Valley just got easier.

Now online is Valley Connection – a new blog dedicated to information on what’s going on in your community.

Short for “Web log,” blogs are Internet sites where short stories and links are added to what becomes a list of continuously updated information on a topic.

On Valley Connection, look for breaking Valley news, background information on newspaper stories and tidbits from council meetings and other political goings-on. All will come from Valley reporter Peter Barnes and other Spokesman-Review journalists.

This week, the blog features stories about river users concerned about a Spokane Valley road project, hot spots for car crashes on Valley streets, voter turnout in the levy elections and more.

Check it out at www.spokesmanreview.com/blogs/valley or through the blogs link on the main Spokesman-Review Web site.
