Get more news from Gig Harbor & the Key Peninsula: Sign up for this free newsletter

McClatchy Design

We live, work and play in Pierce County. We’re your neighbors, and we love it here. That’s why we’ve started a newsletter that will give you the latest news from Gig Harbor, the Key Peninsula, Fox Island and other communities on the west side of the Narrows.

Gig Harbor Matters: A newsletter of The Peninsula Gateway will send to your inbox on Wednesdays. Sign up here.

We’ll send you breaking news like Gig Harbor reporter Aspen Shumpert’s coverage of fans being banned from the recent Gig Harbor High School-Peninsula High School girls’ basketball game.

We’ll send updates on stories like the much-anticipated bagel shop that’s about to open in Gig Harbor.

You’ll also see work from the rest of the The News Tribune team — including Jon Manley’s high school sports coverage and food reporter Kristine Sherred’s articles about the local dining scene — when their work covers the Gig Harbor area.

We’ll share behind-the-scenes tales from our reporting, especially the ones that make us laugh. It’ll be weekly for now. If you like it and want more, we’re going to need more coffee (and subscribers).

Thank you for reading.
