School Grades were released this week - and should make you smile! Bravo! to all the hard working teachers and staff for their successes!

What do Emerald Republic Brewing and Kittens have in common? Well, nothing really. Except for the shared event on the 19th to drink brews and adopt kittens. They say Summer is Cooler with Kittens!

Flip FLop’s Vendor Mall on Palafox has opened - again! Full of NEW vendors and style, they even have an artist within offering an adult paint class if you’re feeling artistic.

NATIONAL AVIATION MUSEUM - Build-a-Bird 📘 event for kids will follow the Blue Angels demonstration practice with a reading from Thatch and Blues.

And, the DOODLE’S are having a meetup in the park on Saturday. Bring your leash and your favorite HOOMAN. Sponsored by Coastal County Brewing.
