Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Hot off the press! The Gila River Indian News now has its own place on the World Wide Web!

That’s right, the community news you love and trust is now easily available on your computer or mobile device. Visit www.gricnews.org to see for yourself.

There you will find articles from recent editions of the GRIN, many of which will feature more photos than we can typically fit in the newspaper.

Click on “Subscriptions” to get on our mailing list for only $18 per year. Visit “Advertise” to learn how to post ads in the paper. The “Letters” page has information for our opinions page. Write to us!

You will find PDF copies of every GRIN from January 2015 to now in the “Archives” page so you can print them out yourself or scroll through and show your friends. We will continue to update the archive with our digital backlog of newspapers as our website develops.

Keep your eye on www.gricnews.org as we make improvements and additions. We are excited to share this new service with the Community we love to serve.

The Gila River Indian Community is making upgrades to a number of its websites, including www.gilariver.org, www.mul-chu-tha.com, www.gricsafety.org, and others.

As you can see, the websites feature a sleek, dynamic and uniformed design. They respond to desktop computer browsers and work just as easily on smart phones and tablets.

Remember to save www.gricnews.org to your mobile browser for easy access to the website. We will update the website twice each month at the same time we deliver the GRIN.

But wait! There’s more! You can also follow us on social media! For more up-to-date information and some fun photos, we are on Twitter and Instagram; our handle on both is @gilarivernews.

Our goal this month is to connect more with our audience. To do that, we are hosting a photo competition. Here are the rules:

1. Post a selfie of you with a copy of the February 5 edition of the GRIN to either service. 

2. Use the hashtag #gricnews to enter the contest.

Three winners will be chosen on Friday, Feb. 12, and their photos will be posted in the Feb. 19 GRIN, on our new website, and reposted on our social media.
