We’re a little bummed about how quickly this summer went by. Before we know it, the tourists that once flocked downtown will be replaced by hipster college students and frat boys in Southern Tide. But even though the season is changing, we’re still going to take advantage of the here and now. This weekend isn’t going to pass us by when there are Pride Week festivities still going on and you can be sure to find us at Charleston Mini-Wavefest.
