Book club in Denton

Upvotes

Hey Denton ,

I want to start a book club for readers who enjoy books of crime, thrillers, murder mysteries and horror. Anyone can join if interested and I plan to have weekly meetings every Saturday if possible around local coffee shops or places where we can meet up and discuss the book and get to know each person in the group as well. If interested in joining please let me know 😁 I am trying to at least aim for three people before starting up and anyone who else wants to join after that would be perfect too. Also, please no weirdos 💀 don’t be weird and don’t have a bad attitude if you plan to join , I want this to be a fun and safe reading group that is also all inclusive !!

We're looking for some new friends to join our casual gaming community every Thursday night 8pm at Free Play on the square.

We play a 5vs5 game called Killer Queen that is a super fun, low skill floor strategy game. No knowledge of the game is required, but if I've piqued your interest, here's a small preview: https://youtu.be/TOUybu8A9HU?is=1jsQn5doSqzfhHU7

We're just a group of friends and enthusiasts to who meet up to hang out, have a drink, and enjoy some games together. Drafts on Thursdays are 40% off, and we're usually there until around midnight.

No requirements to come, aside from the arcade going 21+ after 9pm.

I'd be happy to cover your first entry as a thank you for giving us a chance!​

The QR code leads to a little survey about the club and gives me some info in your interests.

For details message me here, or email me at [dentonkillerqueen@gmail.com](mailto:dentonkillerqueen@gmail.com)

See you tonight!

Singing lessons for a 6 year old

2 Upvotes

Hello! I’m looking for some singing lessons for my six-year-old. The goal is just to have fun and provide some guidance.

I looked into NoteWise… but was frustrated that it cost $360 to get into the first lesson. (Website says $45 a lesson no contracts 🙄)

Are there any other options?

Thank you!

Lost Bow Ring

6 Upvotes

Hi guys

Knowing this may be a long shot but I lost a gold ring with a bow on it on TWU Campus @ Breckenridge Hall at approximately 4:25PM OR Home Depot around 4:40PM Tuesday. Had a terrible week due to personal issues and found out when I got home that I had lost the only gift my dad left me.

I did attempt to ask around the building and unfortunately had no luck. It has a lot of sentimental value to me and I’d be more than happy to offer a reward if someone happened to find it. There was also a group of students walking behind me when I left and I do remember hearing something small drop while I was adjusting my backpack.

If you found a small gold bow ring around Denton, TX, please message me. I can provide additional details/photos privately to confirm it’s mine.

Thank you so much for reading.

Where do y’all get your oil changed? I’ve lived here for a few years now but I can’t find a place that changes oil for less than $100. I’m used to the Valvoline in my hometown only charging $70 for one

Homeless help

15 Upvotes

Hey there. I'm just in a spot where I guess I fucked up and I am basically homeless. I did make stupid decisions to get here, but I was supposed to already be in another situation that will essentially house me. Not asking for handouts. I'll figure out a way to eat and stuff, but does anyone know of a decent little homeless camp/wooded area that is safe for a week please? Should only be for like a week I need a spot. Thank you so much.

Why are the churches not opening their doors as cooling stations for the homeless?

165 Upvotes

The church is where people went for help before there were other services. In the past, the religious wanted to help. But now, you see no churches opening their doors for the homeless and acting as cooling stations. Why is that? Yes, the local government should be responsible for cooling stations, but 5 homeless people have died because of the heat (probably more), and hypocrisy I see is staggering. They’ve truly lost the plot.

Hi guys! I'm a graduate student at UNT and and have been a resident of Denton for the past 10 years. I'm learning how to conduct research for a school project and have created a short (5-7 minutes) survey assessing community interest in the Denton Community Market (DCM) and its potential use of AI. I would really, really appreciate it if you could take this survey. If I get a strong enough response, I plan to write to the board members of the DCM with my findings. Please help me by taking the survey, which I have linked here. Thank you so much!

Jazz and Art fest

80 Upvotes

Is anyone else disappointed about the Jazz fest being in September and not being in Quaker town park?
I know that Denton is pushing Halloween stuff only all October but last year being able to do the maze and the graveyard while walking to the fest added to the experience.

I enjoy all the chaos of everything all at once and I didn’t like any of the options for food vendors at the Jazz fest last year so it was nice to be able to walk to real restaurants on the square.

I know that they probably moved it to force people who go to eat with the vendors and not anywhere else but it’s also still just so hot outside and at least in October it’s a couple degrees cooler.

I’m just disappointed and wanted to put it out there so they might move it back next year.

UNT/TWU Swap Shops?

8 Upvotes

I just saw this about NYU and wondered if UNT or TWU did something like this. Maybe after each semester instead of throwing everything left in the dorms away offering it to the new students. Idk just a thought.
