This week, we challenge you to take a trip up to Santa Fe and try out one of these cool events they’re holding up there. Heck, you could even take the Rail Runner and save yourself the effort of driving too far.

Nothing says “community” better than a potluck. Do you make the best potato salad? Everyone says that, but let’s be real; it can’t be that extraordinary.

This community potluck is happening on Friday, May 17 at 6:30pm (at a location being announced soon) and is meant to offer a place to share personal experiences and discuss life goals with others over a great meal.
