Let’s take a look at things that are happening, have happened or will happen. Hands on your buzzers, contestants.
It’s time for today’s LightningRound!
Let’s drag out a Big Board, and start the clock!
- I’m just going to let this graphic speak for itself and tell you to come out to Danville’s Skatetown for a real fun time Sunday night at 6PM. Tickets are only $7 at the door and this is going to be a blast. SouthsideCentral is going, so we’ll see you there!
- It sounded like a good business idea when they opened, but Ten Ten House of Jazz, Rhythm & Blues has closed on Piney Forest Road. That building and the former Golden Corral building across the road has been the sites of multiple one year and done restaurants, while Golden Skillet & Romi’s Subs keep going strong. Speaking of that area, nobody has been arrested for the 11/9/13 murder of Antwan Tucker at the Innkeeper (despite a $10K reward being offered) or the shooting there two months ago.
- Market Square Shopping Center has been resurrected from the dead. There’s a sorta-new restaurant there (That Burrito Spot) and we’ll be checking them out in a SouthsideCentral review soon.
- College Bonanza 2015 is coming up on Saturday, August 8th (10 AM – 4 PM) and will be held at Averett’s Frith Fine Arts Center. It’s designed for 9th – 12th graders. A team of people including Mildred Richardson, Bryan Price, Alonzo Jones & John Gilstrap (help me with other people’s names, yall) are working on the event. Lots of colleges and higher education representatives will be there and they’ll have breakout sessions designed to help students in their college decisions. It’s all free and they’re even providing lunch. We’ll have more on College Bonanza 2015 in the next few weeks here on SouthsideCentral.
And that sound means we’ve finished today’s LightningRound! We’ve got more coming up on SouthsideCentral!
Know anything about the film being shown in August at Nordan?
Absolutely nothing, sir.
