What's going on this weekend?

Like many of you, I got emotional while listening to Friday afternoon's tribute to Heath Jackson on Q107.3. Let's make this recent chain of events a reminder to cherish our friendships.

This weekend's big event? Bikes on Broadway, when motorcycle enthusiasts will gather in downtown Columbus. The free event is Friday and Saturday on the 1000 and 1100 blocks of Broadway. Get more details here.
