Can a quirky event at IKEA featuring elephants painted by celebrities like Katy Perry and a Kardashian sister help save real-life elephant herds? Tune in to our latest episode, where we kick off by celebrating Robert Kyle, our Word of the Week winner. We then dive into the start of the new fiscal year, examining how new statewide and local laws impact Burbank. From a new gas tax to sustainability regulations banning plastic water bottles at city events, we discuss the efforts to foster an eco-friendly community and what that means for residents.
But that's not all! We’ll whisk you back away to a whimsical elephant-themed event at IKEA, filled with celebrity-named elephants and Swedish meatballs, all aimed at raising awareness about the plight of elephant herds. You won’t want to miss our humorous anecdotes and tips on spotting these unique installations around Burbank while ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience. We also touch on some more serious community updates, including a tragic incident involving an intoxicated driver and the importance of cooling centers during the anticipated heatwave.
As we approach the Fourth of July, our episode covers upcoming holiday events, safety tips for handling fireworks, and Dr. Angeline Campin's expert advice on avoiding injuries. Learn about the rigorous selection process for Burbank police officers, and get a sneak peek into the Starlight Bowl concert. Finally, we share essential photography tips for capturing stunning fireworks shots, and unveil Catherine Backnight’s photography exhibit, blending art with community spirit. Join us for an informative, entertaining, and safety-conscious celebration of Independence Day.
