Ladies and Gentlemen, gather around, because it's that time again! Time for your daily smorgasbord of the local happenings in and around our quaint town of Hastings. And this isn't just any roundup, no sirree, this is Absolutely 100% Unnecessary, Yet Completely Essential, Top 10 Hastings Happenings' list, where we take the mundane and make it... marginally less mundane!

First up, we've got the Hastings Bands, who have been tooting their own trumpets at the commencement ceremony. Congratulations to the class of 2023, you've made it through the easy part of life, now the real fun begins!

Moving along, let's swing by The Wexford at Emerald Greens. Most of the flooring is in, folks! I mean, talk about a riveting update! I can't wait for the next post: "Some of the wallpaper is up, here's a sneak peek." But seriously, that ballroom is looking pretty swanky, and that bar...well, let's just say I've found my new home.

Next, we're heading to El Original Mexican Restaurant. Now, these guys are all about the food and the family, and let's be honest, who isn't? They can't wait to see you, so get on down there and get your fill of deliciousness!

But it's not all about eating, folks. Sometimes it's about giving, just like the kind-hearted folks at The Open Door. They're all about volunteering and team building. So, if you're tired of awkward team-building exercises at work, why not swap them out for some real-world good? Stock those shelves!

Now, if you're feeling the urge to boogie, Falconer Vineyards & Winery have got you covered. Rain or shine, they're holding a Nationwide Boogie! I don't even know what that means, but it sounds fun!

And speaking of fun, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has some big news. Crossbow regulations have changed! Yes, you heard it here first. So, all you deer and turkey hunters out there, it's time to put those shoulder-fired crossbows to use!

If all this excitement is too much for you, Krehbiel Natural Health LLC is here to help you unwind. They've got a new office space, and they're offering ZYTO Scans and facial analysis readings. I'm not sure what either of those are, but it sounds relaxing!

Next up, Little Log House Weddings has kicked off garden weddings at The Village. So if you're in the mood for love, and flowers, they've got you covered.

Jan's School of Dance is here to keep you moving this summer. They're offering a variety of dance classes, so put on your dancing shoes and get ready to salsa, tap, or whatever it is you crazy kids do these days.

Finally, Dakota County Parks has an offer you can't refuse. They're handing out milkweed plants for free to promote monarch habitat. Because who doesn't want more butterflies in their backyard?

Well, folks, that's all for today’s roundup. Remember, no matter what's happening in the world, there's always something going on in Hastings. So get out there, get involved, and keep this town the bustling hub of excitement we all know and love. Until next time!
