⚓ this week on LBI: 4/3/25

here's what's going on...

Mornin’!

We’ve received feedback in the past that this email can sometimes get buried in your inbox. So we’ve been working on an app for your phone that would provide you with one tap access to quickly find the week’s events, live music, happy hours, etc. The app would be FREE and won’t replace this weekly email, it’d just be an additional way to access the same info. Is it something you’d add to your phone’s home screen? Let us know below.

Would you use a free LBI Lowdown app for your phone?

P.S. Last year we created a flyer containing a QR code which took you directly to the most recent Lowdown newsletter when you scanned it with your phone. This flyer was a big hit with hotels and those who own rental properties so we’ll be sharing it again for you in next week’s newsletter.

P.P.S. 🥳 Wishing a very Happy Birthday (on 4/4) to Lynda L.!

Now, here’s what’s happening this week…
