Dear Readers,
If you’re new in town or just returning from your summer respite, I’d like to personally welcome you to our own version of collegiate paradise. Even though we’re a relatively small town, there are a ton of things to see and do (and drink). In this issue, you can find places to eat, get coffee or party your ass off in true Gainesville/Gator fashion. We have bars and nightspots on every corner. We have a ton of bike shops and hookah spots and restaurants too. I’m not going to dwell on it, but there are also a significant number of the downtrodden and destitute in our town and it can’t hurt to at least be familiar with the issue. Also, there are a wide array of volunteering opportunites for those of you who want to give back to the community. Finally, I know you’re going to drink, but at least take advantage of the transportation options in town so you don’t get behind the wheel. That’s just stupid.
