Did you know Independence had a sister city in Japan? Well, we do! Join in on the virtual event and discover all sorts of fun things!

You know what? We don't have anything better to do so we're just going to tease you with food pictures so you make it a point to come out and see us first thing once this is all over. How about we start with some jalapeno poppers?

In case you have ever wondered, this is *not* how you bowl. Just so you know when you come back to hang with us.

LENT IS OVER! (Or at least, will be very soon.) If you took food/drinks out of your rotation, what's the first thing you're going to chow down on/drink up?

Today is National Beer Day, y'all! You may not be able to celebrate with us here, so raise a glass from wherever you are and celebrate the mighty brewski!
