Your Red, White, & Boom Survival Guide 🎇🇺🇸
Happy Wednesday! Chelsea here.
Programming note: today is the last newsletter of the week as Navigator staff takes some time to recharge. We'll return Monday, July 8th. Happy 4th!
Today is the day, folks! Red, White, & BOOM! is officially here. I love a good fireworks show, and honestly, BOOM! is iconic. Yes, there are lots of people. Yes, it will probably rain at some point. But that doesn't matter. It's still one heck of a show and it's probably my favorite free fun all year long. If you've never been or you're just looking for some tips, we've got you covered. Personally, I'll be setting up shop at Scioto Audubon Metro Park, so if you're around, stop by and say hey! I'll be the one coated in sunscreen and hiding under the largest hat I can find to avoid burning my super pale skin!

A Different Columbus Blue Jackets 🏒
The Columbus Blue Jackets are going to look very different this fall after
to free agency. As that article points out, Panarin leaves as probably the most talented player to ever play for Columbus. CBJ is young and has a huge amount of cap space, so hopefully, the recent competitiveness will continue.
