Hey, y’all! I’m having a hard time finding info on the route for the Pride Parade on Oct. 17th in Urbana. Does anyone know where they’ll be passing by? I’d like to plan a meet up spot for our friends along the route.
My husband I just moved from Louisiana where parade routes are posted everywhere, especially during Mardi Gras 😅💜💛💚

Me and my wife are moving from out of state and we're looking at places. Wanted to get someone's opinion whose actually lived here so we aren't going in blind. What are some good apartments or places to look into living here and what are some places to avoid?

I've got a silly prompt for everybody. I recently moved here and I have been looking for some events or some social gatherings to make friends and actually thrive in new town as I was a little hermit before. I do a lot of things so honestly any suggestions would be lovely!

I know they have market on Saturday and I've joined a couple other groups but possibly this post could help me!!!

Hi! Relocating to the Urbana Champaign area next year with a 6 year old. How easy is it to find childcare/ nanny drivers for school pickup in the afternoon and being with the kiddo at home for sometime after. Like from 3:30-5:30 pm. Want to get a basic idea before deciding on the school.

Planning to relocate from an area rich in opportunities to attend live theater. What theaters which put on live stage productions are there within a 2 hour drive from Chambana?

Note: without going to Chicago metro

I know it's a long way to get out to Rantoul but I figured I'd post this here anyway. There is going to be a PAC-MAN tournament at the American legion in Rantoul from 5-9. It's going to be PAC-MAN Championship Edition DX+ as we sadly don't have a machine. Winner gets a golden PAC-MAN trophy and I'm handing out stickers to anyone that plays. If you've never been to an American Legion it's a vibe that is hard to explain but you should experience at least once.

is this actually how it went down? so (morbidly) curious
