Thanks for looking at another edition of the Murfreesboro Pulse. The paper always remains free for you to pick up. Also, find all Pulse content archived and available at boropulse.com—never a paywall, a request to purchase a subscription or annoying pop-up ads!
This is free for you, thanks to our great group of sponsors. Go and see these guys! Bring your business to those who support local culture and invest back into the community.
I thoroughly enjoy the steak and bacon-wrapped asparagus from CJ’s, wings and pizza from Station Grill, macarons and salad from Simply Pure, sopes and enchiladas from Carmen’s, chicken parm from The Alley, something with carrots and ginger from Juice Bar, a delicious chicken piccata or veal milano or grilled salmon from Milano, some raspberry vinaigrette or garlic olive oil from Epicurean, a sandwich and brew from The Green Dragon, that hot (but not hella hot) chicken from Helen’s or that wonderful chili verde or a pollo santa fe from Nacho’s. If you need food for a large gathering, give the Chilito team a try.
It’s an excellent start to the day to breathe in some of Melaleuca’s essential oil respiratory blend, called Vapor (sign up to the wellness program with Mr. Harry Ballard), and to then prepare a nice French press of the fine Fox and Goat coffee.
I try and stay active by climbing those walls at the Ascent, using the weights, machines, treadmills and sauna at the Murfreesboro Athletic Club, and by moving, balancing and flowing with Jim Genet. A cool glass of kombucha from Float Alchemy refreshes after a good workout; consider scheduling a massage there, or at Nurture Nook, Balance Anew or Wand and Willow, to further assist with recovery and relaxation.
Murfreesboro Aviation will take you on a thrilling experience flying high above Murfreesboro.
Find an abundance of supplements and natural products and snacks at Sunshine Nutrition, hair services from Nexgen or Joel Goode, pet care from Doggies Day Out, a bottle of Tennessee wine from the Big Creek Winery Tasting Room, furniture from Smart Buys, or hop on Rover if you need a ride.
Make sure you make arrangements, well before the time comes, for the good folks at Woodfin Funeral Chapels to handle your memorial ceremony.
If you need computer repair, go see Compumax; find event space for meetings, banquets and presentations at Carriage Lane Inn; Holmes & Swafford and Contract Management Services provide quality business services; for AV needs, contact Austin Audio or Audio Visual TN.
Three Rivers Family Dentistry will help you with your dental needs, and quality home services are provided by P&Q (junk pickup), Tri Star (pressure washing) and Affi (pest control).
I am not personally a student at Bill Taylor’s Bushido School of Karate, but I do get a kick observing Bracken Jr. and all of the other hardworking young students spar and run their katas.
If you need a home, ask Kelly Gafford about the StoneBridge community; if you need a spot for your business, let the Sims Realtors team help you. Or, if your business is not ready to purchase a piece of land or a warehouse, join the many local independent professionals who work out of Cultivate Coworking.
Visit Frog Brigade Farmacy, Gen 1:29, Enchanted Planet or MNC Hemp for CBD products.
Looking for something fun to do during a night out? Check out Premiere Six Theater, the Paws and Pearls fundraiser coming up, the Center for the Arts, Boro Art Crawl, Nashville Symphony, Murfreesboro Little Theatre, Blue Raider athletics or activities at the MTSU Center for Chinese Music and Culture.
Find plenty of bands and beer at The Boro, or pay a visit to Wall Street or Campus Pub for a drink and a game of pool.
Call the good folks at CNB Plumbing with any problems with your pipes, or to have a faucet or new water heater installed, and give The Tedder Company a call if you need assistance with your heating and air.
If you are in a band, Ridenour Rehearsal Studios offers some beautiful, quality rehearsal space, and the Hillfolk crew will help you book some shows.
So-Cali Taco Shop is the newest taco sponsor of the Pulse; turn the pages and find a BOGO breakfast burrito.
I feel right at home cooking up brats or pork chops from Batey Farms while listing to some tunes on vinyl from Century 21, perhaps as our Lionel train from Thor’s puffs down its track. Fine stuff! These businesses have become a big part of my family’s life over the years.
Check a new one out and you may discover something of value to you. And we’re always accepting more supporters! Join the cause.
We hear it often: “My business doesn’t advertise, we reach our customers on Facebook.”
Well, if you are reaching all of the people you need to via Facebook, carry on.
However, if you choose to place an ad in the Pulse (in addition to, or in lieu of your social media ad purchases), I assure you, we won’t eavesdrop on your personal conversations, track your location or gather data on your personal interests and on those in your network. We’ll get your ad into racks, locations and consumers’ hands all over town, without requiring the reader to have sufficient battery life or internet connection. And we’ll invest back into the Middle Tennessee economy and give the wealth a better shot to stay in the community. Shop local, right?
