💆🏻‍♂️ Local Business Spotlight 🧘‍♂️

I went to K-Ari Spa in Highland the other day and IT WAS INCREDIBLE. It’s a new Korean style spa. I had heard great things so I took my wife and we got facials together. It was my first facial ever, and definitely won’t be my last. They used a ton of different products and it was a wonderful experience. My wife also bought a bunch of Korean skincare products on the way out, all at great prices. They have extremely reasonably priced packages as well as a cheap monthly membership option. My wife and I came out glowing - I’d highly recommend stopping by! Website linked above and Instagram here.

The Delta Center has begun construction on a renovation to make its hockey games more fan-friendly. It’s part of a multi-year plan to completely re-do the entire area. Read more about it here.

In related news, the hockey team changed its username on YouTube to Utah Mammoth - so was their new name leaked?!
