Hello, Hastings-ites! This is your day's top 10 local events and shares that will have you checking your calendars and loosening your belts.

Our journey begins with the caffeine-fueled, schedule-obsessed folks at Caffeinated Rooster. They've got an itinerary so jam-packed, they're genuinely concerned for their own survival. We're talking early mornings, late nights, and locations ranging from Levee Park to Treasure Island Resort & Casino. For the love of all things caffeinated, check on them...they mean it. Seriously.

On a sportier note, the Hastings Area Swim Team – HAST has been making waves. Whether it's personal bests, bronze and silver times, or just the sheer joy of splashing around, these athletes are showing what HAST Swimming Success looks like.

Afton Apple Orchard, while known for its apples, is riding the raspberry wave this summer. Opening at the orchard Monday, July 10th, they promise raspberries so sweet and flavorful, they might just give your grandma's apple pie a run for its money.

Meanwhile, West End Liquor / Red Wing has been pouring their hearts into serving the area's best craft beer for over 40 years. Remember folks, drinking local doesn't just mean in your living room.

A Taste of Tayb is bringing the flavor with home-cooked comfort food inspired by their mothers and grandmothers. Now, I don't know about you, but in my world, the term 'comfort food' translates to 'eat until you need to unbutton your pants'. Proceed with caution, friends.

The Hastings Beauty School, eager to prove that beauty isn't just skin deep, is opening a new Esthetician Class on July 31st. New treatment rooms, new instructors, new machines. They might just make you feel new.

The Confluence Hotel, meanwhile, is the perfect blend of history and modernity. The building might be a renovated industrial factory, but the vibes are all 5-star. It's like the best kind of time travel.

Over at My Current Obsessions Company, they're jazzing up their store with fresh displays. With a tagline like 'Unique Gifts from Unique Personalities', you can only imagine the kind of knick-knacks and curiosities you'll stumble upon.

S O Discount Deals seems to be having fun with their wares. Selling a monster truck that Shawn the man child tested in the parking lot. Yes, they wiped down the truck, but the wheel dust is still there. We all know that Shawn dust is the mark of quality.

Finally, the City of Hastings Government is hosting an outdoor market on July 13th. Books, snacks, home decor, live music...they've got it all. It's like a mini Woodstock, minus the mud and acid trips.

And that, Hastings-ites, is your Top 10 for this week, complete with caffeine overdoses, swimming superstars, mouth-watering raspberries, and even a dusty monster truck. Remember to mark your calendars, loosen your belts, and get ready to dive headfirst into the delights your city has to offer. This has been your HastingsNow.com news round-up. Until next time, keep it local and keep it weird.
