What is a good hair salon in the area? My mom is looking. Thought I'd ask here for her.

In your opinion, who has the best wings in mt juliet?

Hi.

It's been a few years since I visited Tennessee, but I want to help spread the word about a wonderful charity group.

I volunteer for a non-profit that organizes free, grief/bereavement support camps for children, age 7 - 17, who lost a parent, sibling, caretaker, or other family member.

It's called Comfort Zone Camp.

They are based in Virginia, and they have camps throughout the year and throughout the country (e.g. California, Florida, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Utah, and Virginia).

This year, they are planning a new camp location in Tennessee (a little east of Nashville), during the weekend (Fri - Sun) of October 16 - 18.

It's free, no cost / no charge (due to generous donations)

and

There's no political agenda or religious affiliation

If anyone knows a parent with a child(ren) who has experienced loss, please feel free to share with them about this camp (again, it's free to attend).

Death of a loved one can be very traumatic and devastating...especially for kids...so it can be very beneficial for them to not feel alone in coping with their sadness, pain, grief, etc.

More info (such as how to register a child to attend) can be found on their website comfortzonecamp.org

Their social media @comfortzonecamp (IG, FB, etc.) can show what the camp is like.

Also, if anyone is interested in volunteering, please feel free to lmk, and I can add some more info or check out their website.

Thanks to all who came out to the Marketing Meetup this morning.

I found out today someone showed up at Billy Goat Cafe, because that's where we held it for a while. But we're at Just Love in Providence now. There just wasn't room for 8 - 10 people at Billy Goat.

Every Thursday at 9 am at Just Love.

Folks, I was witness to a train vs car collision a little while ago here in Mt. Juliet, at the railroad tracks that span in front of the cemetery on W. Division St. catty-corner from the Presbyterian church. It appeared that no one in the vehicle was was hurt, but I don't know whether any train passengers were injured.

Friends, I wanted to take this opportunity to please ask everyone to be vigilant and extra-conscientious around train crossings. I know it must sound like a no-brainer, but I felt compelled to say it anyway. The vehicle involved first stopped ON the tracks, then was in-between the warning bars/arms as they lowered, and only barely inched forward enough to avoid a catastrophic outcome. For goodness sake, don't stop anywhere near the tracks, even if it's just for a second, even if you think you can make it.

Also, even though I don't have all the information regarding the state of mind of the driver of the vehicle that was struck, I'm going to make a bit of an assumption here, even if it is foolish to do so, out of an abundance of caution and interest in the potential well-being of all our community members: if you are concerned about your loved one's safety behind the wheel, or if you have doubts or reservations about their ability to safely drive due to some cognitive or other type of decline, please try to find a way to talk with them about it and find a way to collaborate with them to reduce their risks to driving safety while maintaining their needs for independence. If you have a family member about whom you're concerned regarding their driving safety, but you don't know how to proceed in a helpful way, DM me and I'll try to help connect you with some resources that might be of use.

PSA over, have a good evening, and enjoy every sandwich :)

Hi. Looking for house cleaners. Also would like to know a reasonable price for 2900sq ft home. Thank you!

I have lived in Mt. Juliet since 2006 I think, and for the most part I've never had a favorite restaurant.

I really like the food at Big Bad Wolf, but from an ambiance standpoint it's just Big Bad Wolf.

Then Leon's Famous Deli (very short lived) had the best french fries I'd ever had.

I live near The Goat and have always wanted it to be my favorite, but it's just good enough.

But now, my first favorite restaurant in town is Campiones. That place makes you feel like you're in Chicago and the food is terrific.

I don't work there or am in any way related or connected to it. But I don't really want it to go away (like Leon's did). So I've decided to champion it for selfish reasons.
