What's the deal with local news? You've got bands, chiropractors, and biscuit makers all in one place! It's like the breakfast buffet of community life! So, let's dive into today's HastingsNow.com/local-10, where the variety is just as delightful as choosing between cereal or pancakes. Here we go!

Hastings Bands - Minnesota: So three musicians walk into an All State Band and Orchestra...no, really! Congratulations to Lily, Charlie, and Audrey, hitting the high notes up at Concordia College Moorhead. Orchestra Hall in February? Now that's an appointment I want to keep!

Hauck Chiropractic: Last night, an 11-year-old says, "Mom, can you adjust me?" I'm thinking, why stop there? Adjust the TV, adjust the thermostat, adjust everything! But seriously, chiropractic care – it's not just for cracking your back anymore. Fair week’s coming, so straighten up!

Hastings Arts Center: Charcoal drawing with Jeremy Haney? Now, there's a class where the more you mess up, the better you're doing. Get your hands dirty and discover art that doesn't require an electric outlet.

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton School: Summer projects! You know, like repairing steps and sidewalks. It's like arts and crafts for adults with cement!

The Copperfield: Biscuits & Gravy? Now you're talking my language. That's the breakfast of champions right there!

Hastings American Legion: Membership renewals are like birthday cards from your bank. Nice to have, but you know it's automated. Make sure to include your name – they might not recognize you without it!

Diane Davies Author: Diane's new book about Willy the Covid Rescue Pup. It’s a "tail" that will "paw-sitively" tug your heartstrings. A dog rescued from a junkyard to a forever home – that's like a sitcom plot right there!

Nathan Griner Music: Two CDs in one year? Nathan's cranking out CDs like there's no tomorrow, or at least like there's no streaming. Catch his next release this October; you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll dance a little.

Extreme Sandbox: Here's where adults play with heavy equipment! It's like taking sandbox games to a literal extreme. Team building or just big toys for big boys and girls? You decide!

River Valley Band: Dust off those instruments and join the fun. Talented, not-so-talented – they want you! It’s like karaoke for instruments. Rehearsals start next month, and embarrassment starts shortly after that.

And that's the latest from Hastings, folks. From bands to biscuits, and pups to projects, this town never ceases to amaze me. You don't have to love it, you don't have to hate it, but you sure as heck can't ignore it. Hastings, stay local, and remember, if you're eating biscuits and gravy while being adjusted by your chiropractor, you might just be living the dream. Or you're just at a really great diner. Until next time, take it easy, and remember, if you're not complaining, you're probably not paying attention!
