It’s that time of year again, y’all. The school doors are fresh with WD-40 and the cars are accidentally turning north onto Elm St. again. School is back in session and with it, a new crop of Dentonites have flooded our city limits. Will these fresh, young faces become lifelong Dentonites or never step foot outside of their college campus? Only time will tell, but we’ve decided to do our part to get them to become a part of the former group, by providing them with some insider knowledge. Below are a collection of precious WDDI secrets that those new to Denton (and some folks that have been living here for a while) might not yet know. It’s time for Secrets of Denton County VII. Got a Denton secret of your own? Add it to the comments!

The Fourth was a lot of fun but geez is this hot humidity startin’ to drag it outta ya or what? Just when you think Denton weather can’t get any wackier, Texas just smiles and says, “Hold my Lone Star and watch THIS!” You can still get in on our top picks for “Denton Summertime Fun” or “Kid Camps” and maybe these “Denton Podcasts” to pass time in your cubicle or that dang long drive on the MadMax heckscape called I-35.

THE DEN10: JANUARY 6TH 2016
Did you know that Denton is listed in the Random House Dictionary? More importantly, the friendly folks at Spiderweb Salon are now taking submissions for their next zine, which will be a special one dedicated to Denton’s beloved Nick Thrasher. You can submit stories, photos, poems, letters and more. Submissions are due by February 1. Besides that bit of cool soon-to-be-print info, we have 10 solid events for you to check out this week.

THE DEN10: JULY 15
Summer is almost over and if you’ve not got your plans together to blow it, don’t worry, we’ve got plenty of things you can get into. This week, possibly the most intriguing event is the Goliad kickoff party at Dan’s. It’s a “media production house” according to the site (which really is beautiful and I recommend checking it out). It seems to be reminiscent and connected to the Porch scene so we’re hoping for good things. Remember y’all, life is short, hashtag WDDI.
