šŸ¦ Stay Cool with Hot Events + Free BIBIBOP for a Year!

Discover what's happening in Greenwood, Center Grove, Franklin, Bargersville, and beyond on this hump day!

TOGETHER WITH

Goooood Morning! It's Wednesday, August 28th, and if you're wondering why your shoes are melting into the sidewalk, it's because summer decided to crank the heat up to "actual oven" mode. Forget the weather app—it’s basically lying at this point. We recommend staying indoors, sipping something cold, or pretending we're all tropical lizards soaking up the sun. Hang in there—fall has to show up eventually, right?

In today’s South Side Scoop:

  • 🌟 Free BIBIBOP for a Year? Yes, Please!

  • šŸŽ‰ Final Fridays in Greenwood: As Seen on Fox59

  • šŸ“ Devour Indy: South Side Restaurants Serving Up Summerfest

Let’s get to it!

Final Fridays in Greenwood Highlighted on Fox59

Last month, the inaugural ā€˜Final Friday’ in Old Town Greenwood took place, but it’s back again this Friday!

It’s Hot for Pets Too

Perhaps you’ve heard - it’s pretty dang hot out. When the temperatures are scorching, don’t forget the surfaces your dogs are walking on become quite hot. This graphic below showcases just how hot surfaces can get, depending on the temperature. Just a friendly reminder as we endure another stretch of very hot temperatures. :)
