"Listen up, Hastings! This is your Local 10, and if you think you can ignore it, well, you're wrong! Let's dive in."

"Dakota County Government is ringing in Bike Month, and it's about time we recognized how cycling can revolutionize our travel. Did you know that almost half of our trips are shorter than two miles? Bike Month is an invitation to reimagine these trips on two wheels. Between May 15-21, we challenge you to commute to work by bike. And if you're not ready for a full week, try it out on Bike to Work Day, May 19. See you on the road!"

"Good news, folks! Pub 55 is here to confirm that the whispers are true. This coming Monday, May 15th, we'll be serving up an entirely new menu. We can hardly contain our excitement and can't wait to share it with you!"

"Diane Davies has a message for you: the Inver Grove Moose Lodge 1088 is honoring Butch Davies with a golf tournament. It's not just about the game, but about the kids who will benefit from the scholarships funded by the event. Mark your calendars for July 23, 2023 at the Emerald Greens Golf Course, and for dinner at the Moose Club after. For more details, get in touch with Dan or Hubie. If golf isn't your thing, but you still want to join in for the dinner, they've got you covered. Just remember to reserve your spot ahead of time – no walk-ins."

"The Como Park Zoo & Conservatory, in collaboration with the American Public Gardens Association, is celebrating Go Public Gardens Days until May 21. Today, we draw your attention to the Charlotte Partridge Ordway Japanese Garden, a testament to the bond between Saint Paul and Nagasaki, Japan. Masami Matsuda, a respected landscape designer from Nagasaki, crafted this garden with traditional Japanese principles, using plants and trees that withstand Minnesota's climate. The garden is a sensory delight and embodies the essence of Japanese design."

"At Rivertown Eye Care, we believe in the power of a balanced diet. Did you know that some foods can directly influence your eyesight? We're here to arm you with the knowledge and resources to make informed decisions about your health. By incorporating these vision-boosting foods into your diet, you're taking a delicious and proactive step towards protecting your eyes. Remember, regular check-ups are crucial too, so if it's been a while or if you have concerns about your eyes, don't hesitate to book an appointment with our optometrists."

"HYAA Youth Baseball and Softball is celebrating a victory! Their 12U Blue softball team seized first place at the Swing Into Spring tournament in Elk River. It's a testament to their hard work and the vibrant community spirit that supports them."

"The Arbor at Young Acres reminds us that cooking is never a solitary act. Each time we step into the kitchen, we're accompanied bygenerations of cooks who came before us and the wisdom of countless recipes. The Arbor sprung from a desire for togetherness, for family, and for the pursuit of fine cuisine. It's more than just sustenance; it's a shared experience, a moment of joy, and a memory in the making. So, join us at the table and share in our grand culinary journey."

"Hastings Family Service is brimming with gratitude following the spring "Empty Bowls" event hosted by Hastings Senior High School. Students put their creativity on display with a stunning array of pottery bowls, each one a unique masterpiece. Delicious meals warmed our bellies and hearts alike, and the event culminated in a grand total of $2,308 raised for hunger relief in Hastings. Our community has once again shown its capacity for generosity and care."

"HYAA Youth Baseball and Softball's 13AAA Baseball team has a victory to celebrate! They swept the River Falls Classic tournament, ending with a perfect 5-0 record. Their triumph isn't just a win—it's an invitation to the MBT State Tournament and the Gopher State Tournament of Champions. Together, they've shown us the power of teamwork, resilience, and daring greatly."

"Dale Lewis's sculpture, "Waiting for Cosmo," has unexpectedly turned into a safe haven for a family of robins. As they grow, their cozy nest might become a tight squeeze. This isn't the first time Lewis's sculptures have served as nesting grounds—the 6' tall "Little Susie" T-Rex sculpture has been a favored spot for robins in the past. But "Waiting for Cosmo" is a first-time host, and it's a sight to behold."

"And that's it, Hastings! Now, don't just sit there—like, share, and let's see you smash that like button like it's the last piece of chocolate on earth. Check out HastingsNow.com for more stories from your neck of the woods. Until next time!"
