Small town loses paper, residents fill gap online
Don Day April 27th, 2008
When the town of Orting, WA lost its hometown weekly - several residents banded together to keep the information flowing online. The Orting Gazette turned off the presses in March - but now the new Orting News online site features community news submitted by the public, with a special emphasis on high school sports. The Gazette’s former editor is even pitching into help the new online effort.

I have watched the Orting Basketball Program go from one of the best programs in the state in the 70s, 80s and part of the 90s. I feel the program needs a change, as they have become the dormat for everyone.
