Seasonal
 
🌱 Happy first day of Spring

Today marks the spring equinox (aka the first day of Spring).

Technically speaking, it’s the day that the sun crosses the Earth’s equator from the Southern Hemisphere into the Northern Hemisphere. The shift marks the astronomical start of spring and days will become “longer” because there will be more time between sunrise and sunset.

Looking to celebrate the season? Head to our events page to see community events happening this week and beyond. If you’re up for spending some time outside, our parks guide will point you in the right direction — whether it’s for a lunchtime stroll or an evening run.

If you’re in the mood for some spring cleaning, here are the essentials we recommend:

🧽 Mr. Clean Magic Erasers

💧 Microfiber cleaning cloths

🧹 Duster kit

🍓 Refrigerator organizer bins

🧼 Spinning scrubber brush

Bonus: Hire a cleaning professional to tidy up your humble abode.

From the Editor
A new art piece named ‘One With the Bee’ by artist Dixie Friend Gay will be dedicated with a ribbon-cutting at North Z. Boaz Park on Saturday, April 1 at 10 a.m.

The 20-ft tall flower features a 160-degree opening on one side allowing viewers to see into the center of the flower, while the scale allows the visitor to experience the art as an insect would an actual flower. The artwork represents the importance of healthy bee habitat and the insect’s critical role in pollination.
