By FresYes Writing Team

Hold onto your hats, folks, because a horrendous, hazy, and hellish heat wave is hurling itself towards us! Heating the air to unbearable heights. Hectic temperatures will hover over the horizon, heralding a hazardous environment. Hide in the shade if you can, for this heat wave will hit hard, leaving no respite. Homes will become heated havens, with air conditioning humming harmoniously. Hydration will be crucial; hydrate with heaps of water and help your body handle the heat. Heatstroke becomes a haunting hazard, so heed the advice and take heed of the warnings. Hold tight, for the heavy, and hostile weather is heading our way, heralding a challenging heat wave ahead.

That’s about all the “H” words we could muster up in a single paragraph. We’re certainly putting the HOT into Hot & Happening this weekend!

FRIDAY: Always Adele

With an astounding accomplishment of over 70 million in pure album sales and exceeding 100 million in album equivalent units worldwide across four studio albums and one video album as of December 2021, Adele has established herself as a musical powerhouse.

She has earned the title of the best-selling album artist of the 2010s decade both in the United States and globally. Although witnessing Adele’s live performance may seem improbable in the near future, fear not! The sensational alternative awaits you: ALWAYS, ADELE! is playing this Friday Night at The Tower.

Sorry, Obligatory Pool Break…

Ok, we’re back…

ALWAYS, ADELE stands as Los Angeles’ premier tribute to the incomparable pop icon, Adele. This exceptional 7-piece band comprises virtuoso musicians, led by the commanding vocals of Sarah Stallman. Together, they not only recreate Adele’s awe-inspiring melodies but also embody the down-to-earth essence that defines her artistry. With captivating renditions of beloved hits like Hello, Rolling in the Deep, Someone Like You, and an array of other favorites, this remarkable show will undoubtedly have you passionately belting out every lyric, singing your heart out!

Plus it’s air conditioned! Check out her promo video at https://vimeo.com/796482369

SATURDAY: The Kingsburg Watermelon Festival

Did you know that the annual Watermelon Festival began on August 5, 1937 and ran for at least 55 years over a 63 year period. Based on articles in the Kingsburg Recorder and the Selma Enterprise, it appears the 55th Annual Kingsburg Watermelon Festival was on July 28, 2000. See THIS POST.

We didn’t either, but we’re also happy to say that it’s back! We don’t know much but we do know that it’s this Saturday from 4 PM to 9 Pm. Come enjoy a nice summer evening with some cool free watermelon, food trucks, craft vendors, carnival games for the kids, obstacle course, hat bar, face painter and more!! Memorial Park by the high school.

Oh yeah, if it’s Saturday, that means that you can take our FresYes Quiz. It’s a few simple questions about what we covered this last week and if you get half right we’ll throw your name in the hat for a freebie! No hurry though. You have until Monday to take it! How cool is that?

SUNDAY:

With it being the hottest day of the week – some are saying 114 degrees – we can’t do anything but suggest you stay indoors, stay cool, stay hydrated. If you are bored you can always fry an egg on the sidewalk and if you do we want to see a picture or video of it! Tag us on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/fresyes/)
