Good morning Tupelo! Today is Sunday, January 5, 2020. It is the 5th day of the year. There are 361 days left in the year (don’t forget this is Leap Year!) and 73 days left of winter! Valentine’s Day is in 40 days, and Spring starts in 74 days.

HAPPENING TODAY

Today in Tupelo, here are the things going on around town:

The Bancorpsouth Arena will be open for Public Ice Skating today from 1:00 p.m. this afternoon until 6:00 p.m. tonight. Ice Rink Admission price is $12 per person and this includes skate rental.

Miranda Lambert’s Little Red Wagon Tour is partnering with the Tupelo-Lee Humane Society to help them get what they need to take care of all those sweet animals! From now until January 10, 2020, you can bring donations to Steele’s Dive to be entered into a drawing for two free tickets. There will be two drawings held on January 10 for the January 16th concert, meaning that there will be two lucky winners who will receive a free pair of tickets EACH.

We have a free family four-pack of tickets to see the Harlem Globetrotters at the Bancorpsouth Arena on January 13 to give away to our followers here at OurTupelo! As a bonus, these four tickets also come with Magic Passes! We’ll be running this promotion though January 11, and announcing the winner at noon-ish on that day. Make sure to check out the pinned post on our Facebook page for details on how to win!

CrossWalk Free Will Baptist Church invites you to join them for a seminar on Toxic People. Most likely, all of us have encountered those we would consider to be toxic. How do we recognize them? How do we respond to them? How do we help reform them? Session one of “How Do I Manage Toxic People In My Life” begins this morning at 10:30 a.m..

St. Paul Orthodox Church invites you to join them at Ballard Park for a blessing of the waters at 1:00 p.m..

Showdown Esports invites you to join them at the Link Centre at 12:30 p.m. for their Sunday Showdown Tupelo area weekly FGC event! Come out and compete, spectate, or play casual games on the side and hang out!

Hailing from the backwoods of north Mississippi, MyLove Barnett spent a decade tripping up the corporate ladder as an accountant before trading in her stilettos and pencil skirts for jeans and flip flops and the privilege of working for various platforms as a writer, editor, and content manager.Although she has an MBA and a BS in accounting, she's found her passion falls more in the creative arts of writing and graphic design. She lives, writes, and raises hell on the outskirts of Tupelo in the small community of Nettleton.
