This week, we're soaking up the unexpected summer vibes in late March and sharing what's happening across Northern Colorado. We kick off with Miles Beyond Running Community and their Urban Ultra coming up in April, a 50-mile individual or relay race from Bellevue to Greeley on the newly completed trail. We celebrate Mandy Mullen's growth with Miles Beyond, expanding from race series to helping other communities build their running cultures, plus her new Lululemon ambassadorship.

We share the exciting news that Original Roma in Greeley has reopened after employees banded together to bring back the beloved spot for bazookas and calzones. Community gatherings include the Fly Fishing Film Tour at Lincoln Center with St. Peter's Fly Shop, Loveland's monthly foodie walk featuring five downtown restaurants, and Ginger and Baker's first murder mystery dinner, The Baker's Half Dozen, coming in May.

Music highlights feature the Sonic Spotlight showcase at the Armory, teaching young bands the business of music, and Max Mackie's solo performance at Salt Road Brewing on March 27. We spotlight two incredible fundraisers: House of Neighborly Service's Hope Blooms fashion show on April 17 (with a special MC appearance) and Matthew's House 20th birthday celebration on April 18.

Business events include the BBB's 28th annual Celebration of Ethics and the She Goes High Solo No Mole Summit on March 27, an introvert-friendly networking event at the BBB. Food picks highlight Estes Park's final Dine Around Town Thursday with $6 deals at 35 restaurants and the classic steak sandwich at Steak Out Saloon in Fort Collins.

Enjoy the sunshine, NOCO.
