Happy Monday, Longmont!🧔

Sun’s out, patios are calling, and suddenly brunch feels like the main event again. Whether you’re planning a cute date or just chasing that perfect mimosa moment—this lineup might just make your weekend plans for you.

What’s Happenin’ is growing — want to join us?

Last month our local newsletters across Boulder, Arvada, Fort Collins, Longmont, and Denver were opened 177,000+ times by locals looking for things to do and places to go.

As we continue to grow, I’m looking to add one or two people to help with partnerships with local businesses.

If you love supporting local businesses and want to help grow these newsletters, just reply to this email and tell me a little about yourself.
