here's what's going on...

Mornin’!

The weekend is almost here. Can you feel it?

Halloween is also right around the corner! Which means plenty of spooky activities on the island over the next two weeks 👻.

Quick update: We’re now sending this email on Thursdays. Hopefully this will help make planning your weekends easier. I’ve also received tons of requests for happy hours on the island. So we’ll be working on getting that info added to this newsletter in the near future! Keep the feedback coming (you can use the survey at the bottom of this email).

Now, here’s what’s happening this week…
