🌞 A Bit of News

In a shocking move by city officials, it was announced that all Mobile citizens would receive free driving lessons.

In another story, The Bienville Square Fountain is getting restored and was ‘removed’ in 2021. It was only supposed to take a few months.

Here we are in 2023.

Still no fountain...

💸 Local Entrepreneurship

If you read last week's newsletter, you'll know we joined in on the fun for Startup Weekend (one of our owners, Brooks).

And guess what -- the team he joined created a business in less than 48 hours called Habit Heroes (a tool that helps busy parents develop healthy routines for their kiddos).

And...

They won the competition!

If you'd like to stay in the know and learn about next year's competition, hop on the Innovation Portal's email newsletter.

[sidenote: we recommend this event to anyone wanting to learn about entrepreneurship or be around like-minded creative people!]

🍕 2023 Eating Project...

Our goal is to eat at 26 new restaurants during the year of 2023.

But there's a catch --- it has to be restaurants we've never visited, and we're going from letters A-Z (hopefully in order).

A = Azteca'sB = Big Bad BreakfastC = Catalina RestaurantD = D is for Debris E = El Milagro y Taqueria y PupuseriaF = ?????

You can follow along with the journey here. (more pics!)

We need your help!

Where should we go?!?

Please give us your suggestions on Facebook.

We're looking forward to eating our way through Mobile!
