Hello, Friday! Chelsea here.

I can’t believe that it’s only just now summer. But what I can believe is that it’s Friday already. There is a lot going on around town this weekend, which we’ll get to, but I have one additional suggestion that you won’t find on the Weekender. If you plan on eating at all this weekend, I highly recommend that you do it at Del Mar. The newest spot from Cameron Mitchell Restaurants is delicious and the vibes are impeccable. Date night, girls’ night, a “treat yourself” meal… it doesn’t really matter why you go there, just that you do. It’s that good, folks.

💦 Tubing In Hocking Hills Is The Perfect Summer Adventure
If cooling off whilst surrounded by beautiful views sounds like something you’d enjoy, I highly recommend going tubing in Hocking Hills. It’s a beautiful way to check out the area.

🧘‍♀️ This Weekend’s Cave Yoga Class Is The Best Way To Beat The Heat
Sick of the soaring temperatures? Might I suggest you head underground? This yoga class is tucked away in Olentangy Caverns, where the year-round temperature is a cool 55 degrees.

📅 The Best Things To Do In Columbus This Weekend
I hope you all have a fantastic weekend. It’s going to be a hot one, so make sure you’ve got plenty of water, sunscreen, and shade. There’s a lot going on around town, so have fun, stay safe, and we’ll see you back here Sunday morning!
