Happy Fri-yay!

If you gave your feedback on the events poll, THANK YOU!

Today I have a follow-up poll. And, I only ask the below question because of the time required to compile these events. I'm a one-man-show and there are other valuable efforts I could be investing that time into for Clarksville or the newsletter community instead of spending it on event compiling. (see what I did there? 😉)

One way or another I'll be making changes to event stacking. Your feedback will determine the path. So speak up!

👉 PS - There will be NO edition for tomorrow. I have other obligations and there won't be enough time. So, have a GREAT weekend!!

🙏🏽 just a reminder... if you see a friend or colleague mentioned in the newsletter, please forward it to them or share the link with 'em so they know and can feel appreciated - thanks!

have an event to advertise? feature it and pack it out, here!
