Bored and looking to do some good around this town (while looking fabulously silly)? Then join Super Joy Riders this Sunday at 10:00am at Urban ReThink (625 E Central Blvd)! Ride your bike around town dressed as a super hero and perform a Random Acts of Kindness Scavenger Hunt. (If this sounds fun but you're embarrassed, wear a mask!) More info here.
Wind down this Sunday night with Independent Bar's (70 N Orange Ave) '80s to '00s night (I guess--their website hasn't been updated since the '00s). And don't forget, it's Day 2 of the Punk & Hardcore Festival at Will's Pub starting at noon.

RSS just picked this up today at 9:46a. Could just be me, heads up.
ReplyDeleteWell, that sucks... We'll have to figure out how to get these out on the RSS feeds earlier (We may need to post this on Wednesdays to get it to show up on RSS feeds on Thurs so you don't miss out on events that day...)
DeleteThanks for the heads-up!
