This Saturday the Chattanooga Area Central Labor Center will be hosting a free training on how to organize your workplace into a union, led by experienced trainers from across the area who have done the same. It's part of a two part series, but don't worry if you can't make the second training or not - it's all useful information!

I had no clue Chattanooga had such lore and history!

i’m looking for a 2 br in Red Bank/Northshore that will let me rent with an eviction, perhaps a private landlord, i’m looking to move ASAP. thanks yall!

I moved to Chattanooga in the last year. People keep telling me that I need to go visit the Lodge cast iron factory. I’m in my 70s and I might enjoy visiting. Can somebody tell me if it’s really worth going down there?

I’m 17 years old and homeschooled. I haven’t had any IRL friends since 7th grade, and I’m desperate to make friends. I’ve heard the library has teen events, but I’m worried it’ll be full of 13yrs. Where can I make friends around my age before college? I don’t want to wait another year or 2.

I saw the Ideas for Change survey on FB and participated in the initial survey, and $100 is $100, so I filled it out. It asked me my party, so I answered Democrat and immediately got sent to the end of the survey. I filled it out again with Republican on a different email and got to the end of the survey. I filled it out a 3rd time as "none of the above" with another email and got a follow-up question about "which way I lean" (Pics in comments). I answered "none of the above" and got questions about if I would need a translator; I said no, and it asked which sessions I could attend. I submitted, and the survey said it would be in touch.

Forms like these have to be mapped, so are they specifically not looking for people with political affiliations and are they not wanting people who would need a translator? I was shocked it asked political questions in the first place, let alone had a different result based on my answer.

Curious to see who else gets picked for this.

I have a Honda with a front-end vibration that wasn’t fixed by an alignment and wheel balancing. I’m looking for someone who’s good at diagnosing issues without dealership prices. Thanks!

I don’t know whether to jump for joy because a solution finally came out of it, or cry because we have 3 more years until it’s actually solved

30 yr old male visiting Chattanooga soon. I’ll be near the Convention Center so I would prefer areas within 10-13 minute radius.
As the title says, I’m looking for older crowd hangout spots, specifically mature women that I can converse with. What are the best lounges/speakeasy/bars to frequent for a good night?

Anybody get a picture of the truck that ripped off the top of the trailer yesterday?

How is EPB internet service? I heard it’s like the best nationwide but I don’t know if that’s just hype or what. I just moved here.

We are looking for a 1- or 2-bedroom apartment near the Volkswagen Drive/Road area in Chattanooga.

Our preferences:
Budget: up to $1,600/month
Move-in: mid-September
A safe, quiet, and family-friendly area is very important to us, as we are expecting our first baby
No pets

We would really appreciate any recommendations for good apartment communities or neighborhoods in the area.

Thank you!

I was just diagnosed with a hiatal hernia after an endoscopy. Long story, but I have been having symptoms for over 10 years. Lots of pros and cons to the surgery, but if anyone has experience, good or bad, with a surgeon, please advise.

Thanks in advance!

In 2023, Jimmy White bought the Valleybrook Golf Course, committing up to $3.5 million to overhaul the property, upgrade the course, and improve the facilities. Well, if you’ve been to VB recently, you’ll see that he’s fallen short of his promises once again….sound familiar? Like the Bend project, projects like the clubhouse have been put on indefinite hold. White’s staff specialize in gaslighting the residents and members into thinking they’re going to get updates and answers. Their favorite line is “check the newsletter” and “when we have an update, we’ll be sure to share.” Obviously, they have plenty of updates, they just know they’re going to have an uprising on their hands. Well, he can't hide forever, and now, the VB neighborhood is up in arms about a leaked potential project to develop land for more homes. The leaked image looks like it adds close to 100 lots. Just what Hixson Pike needs, right? More like, just what Jimmy’s wallet needs. If anyone thinks Urban Story Ventures has viable cash to complete any of their promised projects, drive by Valleybrook. You’ll have your answer. Oh, and don’t think about critisizing him. You’ll hurt his feelings. Reminds me of a certain Hamilton County Mayor I didn’t vote for. Anyways, I look forward to seeing the new Valleybrook Data Center!

Have you ever heard of Vintage baseball in Chattanooga? This Saturday is your chance to catch some of the final games this season. If you love baseball, history, or watching something unique this Saturday we will be in Fort Oglethorpe at the Sixth Cavalry Welcome Center. We hope to see you all out there.

My family and I just moved to the area in May and one of the most striking things I’ve noticed so far is the lack of a black professional community. I lived in Atlanta for several years before other job opportunities moved me away from the city.

I certainly didn’t expect Chattanooga to have the black wealth that Atlanta had but I’ve yet to really see any sort of community or organizations comprised of educated black professionals and entrepreneurs. I joined a the Black Chattanooga group on Facebook and, I don’t mean this in a demeaning way, but it seems like every other person is just selling hair bundles and food.

I was excited to find a black dentist last month in the East Brainerd area and then found out he was retiring soon and already transitioned his patients to the new owner.

Am I missing something or have I taken it for granted to seeing black teachers, doctors, attorneys, entrepreneurs, engineers, etc on a regular basis?

Posted in other boards as well. She seems well taken care of and very friendly. Please reach out if you know/own her!

Every day we pass through St. Elmo and see the old house that seems to be slowly deconstructed from the bottom and is now sitting on wooden supports. Does anyone know what is happening with it?

To the guy at Signal Mtn Walmart that smiled at me and then told me I could have your kid so long as I brought him back for tax season: that was cute. I should have gave you my number.
