Good morning, Mt Juliet. Let’s buckle up this week. We got our first real heat test for the summer. Let’s remember how miserable and long the dead of winter is whenever we are sweating just walking from the front door to the mailbox. We can do it!

In today’s mt juliet buzz:

🐝Really? Another wholesale store?
🐝Breedens Orchard Night Market
🐝All about TruRoots Health Center

Ladies and gentlemen….let’s get to it!

Sam’s Club To Lebanon?

Apparently, that is the word on the street according to the Tennessean. Project Soaring Eagle is the code name for this proposed project. It has only been proposed and not official yet. Read more here.

A Slew Of New Restaurants

Read here about all of the new restaurants potentially coming to MJ. Where is the ma and pa steak house though?

Train Fan?

And no, we’re not talking about the musical group, but rather the ones that go choo-choo! Hibbett Hall Train and History Museum will be setting up an exhibit at the MJ Community Center this Saturday from 2-4 PM. The display showcases the 1910-1940’s era of Mt Juliet, as well as shares the story of how our city was incorporated in 1972. So beat the heat and bring your history/train enthusiast to this cool display!

🐝Local Expert Health Tip🐝

This week's health tip comes from Kelsey Croley, trainer at Burn Boot Camp - Mt Juliet.

"We only get one body, better take good care of it! Start by making small changes in your daily habits until those small changes become new lifestyle choices. Setting a goal, and making a solid plan, is crucial to long term success in fitness and health. I love to see people take their life back, get healthier and live so much fuller lives because of how fitness changed their mindset. The most important step to begin is to find a community of like-minded people to remind you you’re strong! Do what you can with what you have. The choice is yours - one day, or day one!!”
