Winter(Fest) Is Coming β„πŸ»πŸŒ²

Columbus Navigator Logo

It's the weekend, friends! Tracie here. 

If you had to choose between live music, craft beer, food trucks, or holiday lights, which would you choose? What if I told you that you didn't have to decide? Did I just blow your mind?  Okay, fine, probably not, but still you can find all of those things this Saturday at WinterFest in Bicentennial Park.  Yes, it's going to be cold, but if you drink (or eat) enough, you're likely not to notice.

While he wont be demonstrating the proper installation of shiplap, the popular HGTV woodworker certainly wont make you feel BOARD (πŸ˜‚) as the celebrity guest at the debut Ohio Home + Remodeling Show this January.

This city has so many great restaurants, and with new ones opening every week, it's possible to miss out on some really delicious places without even noticing. ACRE was one such place for me, and now it's part of my regular rotation. Get the cookies.

There's beautiful weather forecasted for Sunday, which means it'll be the perfect day to explore German Village with the Maker's Market and GV Lights. If you see me strolling around with a mug, I promise it's hot chocolate. 

Talking Points ❀️

We've all known Columbus was a "smart city" for awhile...

National media is taking note. This video from Bloomberg has some great insight from Mayor Ginther about Columbus's startup friendly environment and entrepreneurial appeal.

A new brewery with a coffeehouse inside?

Intriguing for sure. Breakfast With Nick took a look at the Olentangy River Brewing Company, along with the full-service Roosevelt Coffeehouse tucked inside. Brews and Brews? Yes and Yes!

β˜•

Ohio has the second highest rate of drug overdoses in the country...

Equally shocking, neighboring West Virginia and Pennsylvania make up the top three. Unfortunately, these rates are also on the rise. All of this coupled with the recent failure of Issue 1, has me questioning what can be done about the opioid crisis.
