The Buzz of Lebanon, Oregon
The Buzz of Lebanon, Oregon is a Facebook news page/bulletin board that allows people in the Lebanon community to share what they have going on, or ask questions. It is one the largest and most active group of its kind that supports the Lebanon community.
One of the reasons why it is so popular is that it is carefully moderated not to allow harsh language, rude or offensive posts or comments, or information that is more easily obtained elsewhere (like garage sales, or pet sales, or general marketplace offers). Businesses share what they have to offer, local organizations post their events, and people seek information about what to do and where to go in the community to get their needs met.
We started The Buzz in 2015 because there isn't the local community space that really allows the local voice to be heard. Traditional news media sources have been priced out of the budgets of most folks in our community, and most local bulletin boards have been abandoned. What's more, with so much of our population looking online for their information, and particularly using Facebook as their go-to, it only makes sense that this be available.
