About

Your stories are welcome here.

MyEugene is a community-driven news site. MyEugene features conversations and stories that were created or suggested by the people of Eugene—for the people of Eugene.

That’s right. MyEugene is for people – not politicians or pastors. MyEugene is for citizens, not consumers. MyEugene is for neighbors, not tree-huggers or tree loggers.

MyEugene’s Purpose:

To share community-driven news and happenings
To feature neighborhood stories not reported elsewhere
To publish stories submitted by the community
To provide a channel for community voices and a means for large-scale conversation

MyEugene is for you. MyEugene is your voice. So let’s hear it.

And here is our most recent press release.

Sincerely,
Jaculynn Peterson
