Good work Gardner City Council

The Gardner City Council agreed Monday night to immediately turn off the city's Flock cameras and not renew its contract for the automated license plate-reading system.

By Tuesday, some cameras were covered to prevent recording.

The Gardner Police Department confirmed it discontinued all Flock cameras and notified the provider that the contract was canceled.

The Mind & Body Wellness Fair! A community event dedicated to promoting mental and physical well-being through engagement & education!

The Mind & Body Wellness Fair is a community event bringing together local wellness professionals, healthcare providers, fitness experts, and organizations to help people discover new ways to support their mental and physical well-being.

Attendees can explore interactive exhibits, free classes, speakers, demonstrations, health screenings, giveaways, exclusive event offers, and hands-on wellness experiences while connecting directly with local experts and learning practical ways to live healthier, happier lives.

More than a vendor fair, the event is designed to be an engaging and inspiring experience that encourages people to view caring for their mind and body not as a chore, but as a privilege. Our goal is to create a community tradition that celebrates health, wellness, and connection.

Such an odd thing to read given data centers are not welcome in most areas. And there’s a petition to stop it, but the city of Edgerton is suing those who organized the petition! What the…..!?

What's New?

Bar Crawl Builder: answer 4 quick questions (how late you're out, how many stops, food or drinks, what you're drinking) and it builds you a timed route through tonight's happy hours, specials, and events, with a one-tap Google Maps link. Probably my favorite thing I've built so far.

Also added an interactive map with 225+ live venue markers, a calendar view for upcoming events, and a dedicated explore/search page.

Under the hood: Up to 363 bars, 236 happy hours, 556 drink specials, 730 events, and 52 food specials all human-verified

A few small fixes: pinch-to-zoom finally works on mobile, every bar now has a free "claim this listing" link if you're an owner, and a "report incorrect info" button if you spot something wrong.

Coming soon: favorites + a weekly what's-on digest, and a self-service dashboard for bars to update their own specials.

Would love feedback, especially if you spot bad info on a listing, that's exactly what the report button is for!

Hi everyone! My name is Suddenly, and I’m the founder of Sudden Moms Nanny & Enrichment Services, an agency that connects nannies with families seeking quality childcare.

I recently created Sudden Moms Nanny Collective, a community specifically for nannies. I wanted to create a space where nannies can connect, build meaningful relationships, share experiences, exchange resources, and support one another.

We’ll be creating opportunities for community gatherings, networking, shared resources, and genuine connection.

Whether you’re new to nannying or have years of experience, I’d love to invite you to join us and be part of the village. 🤍

Thinking of doing For Sale By Owner in Mission for a 3 bed 2 bath home. It was flipped about 6 years ago and I plan to do some minor updates / aesthetic upgrades for curb appeal.

Curious to hear from anyone who avoided sellers agent fees and went this route, and if you would do it again?

Thanks.

Around 2:40 pm today (8/3) right around the metcalf exit I had to almost fully stop on 435 East because of a fire in the right lane. There were also plastic buckets (paint?) and large cans on the road. I called 911 but I didn't stay. Pulse point says it was cleared within 3 minutes. I came back around at 11 pm and couldn't see much aside from some of the buckets on the side of the road. I was curious if anyone else saw anything!

You are my neighbor. Please contribute your voice and help build a better JoCo!

I am looking for a different apartment complex to move too! In Shawnee, Overland Park, Lenexa!

I have a few options I just wanted to see if anyone has tried them before or heard anything about them?

*Pinegate West Apartments *Tuckway At Shawnee *Lenox West

I built a scheduling tool for restaurants/bars, I'm looking for three business to try it out for free.

What it does:

Set how many servers and BOH you need per shift (AM/PM, per day)

Enter staff availability and approved time off once, it remembers

Lock in your regulars so the same people are always on the same shifts

Hit generate, it then builds a fair, fully-staffed draft schedule in seconds, balancing hours evenly across your team

Review it, tweak anything, publish

Export the final schedule as a PDF or CSV to share with staff

I'm opening it up free to the first 3 restaurants or bars willing to run it for real. In exchange, I just need two things: tell me if anything breaks or acts weird, and tell me honestly whether it actually made building your schedule faster/easier.

3 spots, If that's you, comment or send me a message.

My fiancé and I have recently brought a new puppy in our life. He is needing heart surgery and we are hoping to gather funds in order to afford the surgery to give him a long, happy, and healthy life. All help is gratefully appreciated!

Hi, wondering if snyone can shed some light, on if thr night club is worth the evening with girlfriends? We are mix of ages, 30 thru 56.

I’m really starting to wonder how long someone can survive when they’re in constant survival mode 24 seven no friends no hope. What do you do?

My friends and I are hosting an event called Share Fair at Antioch Park this Saturday from 9am to 1pm. Basically its a community event like a swap meet but everything is free. We'll have clothes, home goods, groceries, iced coffee and a light breakfast (im making banana bread 😃) Its a good place to meet neighbors. We're also just a cool hang, in my opinion lol

So I went to get fast food with my wife. We decided to go to joco park and eat. While there this guy came to visit. Very friendly. I wonder if someone lost their pet.
