Ah, Hastings, Minnesota. A place where the coffee flows like wine and the corn is as sweet as the people. Or is it the other way around? Who cares! The point is, we've got a community that's buzzing—sometimes literally, thanks to The Bee Barn. So, let's take a stroll through the LOCAL 10, shall we? It's like a smorgasbord of local charm, and you don't even have to tip!

1. Friday Night Lights and Hastings Community TV

You know, football is a lot like life. You run around, get tackled, and occasionally score. Hastings Community TV is bringing the Friday night lights back, and they're doing it in style. They're partnering with Owatonna LIVE to make sure you don't miss a single touchdown or existential crisis. Tune in, or don't. But really, you should.

2. The Bee Barn's Sweet Deal

Fresh honey, folks! The Bee Barn's got it. And not just honey, but Jalapeño Candy? That's like mixing sugar, spice, and everything nice, then slapping it on toast!

3. Caffeinated Rooster's Roost

August was a blast, says the Caffeinated Rooster. They've found the "sweet spot" for the Makers Market. Sweet spot? I'm still looking for the sweet spot on my mattress! But hey, they're pivoting to back-to-school routines. Because nothing says "back to school" like caffeine.

4. Mac's Sweet Corn Stand

Mac's Sweet Corn is the Shakespeare of corn stands. They're here today, gone tomorrow, and poetic all the way. Find them on Vermillion St or at the Hastings Farmer's Market. It's corn. What's not to love?

5. Rivertown Tree Service's Leafy Wisdom

Trees are the lungs of the Earth, and Rivertown Tree Service is like the respiratory therapist. They're telling us that trees absorb 48 pounds of CO2 annually. That's almost as much hot air as I produce in a single conversation.

6. Bollywood in Levee Park

The City of Hastings Government is bringing Bollywood to Levee Park. It's like Hollywood but with more dancing and less existential dread. It's free and open to all ages.

7. The Studio Downtown's Family Affair

The Studio Downtown took some time off for the Great MN Get Together. Family fun at the state fair? That's like saying "traffic jam at the DMV." It's a given!

8. Hastings Raiders Football's Team Dinner

A big thank you to Rooster’s for hosting the team dinner. Nothing says "team spirit" like a family-owned restaurant serving up chicken. Go Raiders!

9. Elegant Landscapes LLC's Unique Touch

Elegant Landscapes is all about unique designs. They're solving drainage issues and installing patios that even your grandma would approve of. Book now for 2024, because apparently, patios are the new iPhones.

10. United Way of Hastings' Community Spirit

Stuff the Bus 2023 is a wrap! They raised food items and cash. It's like a potluck, but for the whole community. Back to School, here we come!

So there you have it, folks. The LOCAL 10 is the vibe of Hastings life, woven with threads of class and quirk. It's a place where you can watch football, buy honey, and learn to dance Bollywood style—all in the same daily 10. And if that's not living, I don't know what is. Until next time, keep it classy, Hastings.
