Carla Anderson for Dubuque City Council Ward 4

Just watched the candidate’s forum. I can’t vote for Carmen Hernandez, but if I could, I would. She has been involved in the community, I know she listens to the people. She is the most qualified to sit in that 1st Ward council chair.

I also support Brad to hold on to his seat as Mayor. However, I would like to see him make more city decisions on his own. Also, we don’t need more parks and parking garages, I think they should find a more suitable way to use taxpayer money.

✨ We had such an amazing time at our BMC Social! ✨
Once a month, we love getting together with all of our members outside of our regular meetings—just to bond, connect, and enjoy each other’s company.

This month we had the opportunity to check out the Iowa Power game at the Five Flags Center, and it was an incredible experience! 🙌 Dubuque’s very first indoor arena football team is bringing so much energy to our community.

If you haven’t checked them out yet, their next home game is this Saturday, September 20th at 7 p.m. at the Five Flags Center—you won’t want to miss it! 🏈💥

And if you’d like to get more involved with the BMC, join us tonight for our monthly meeting at 6 p.m. at the Multicultural Family Center. Come see what we’re about and how you can plug into the community. 💬🌟

✨ BMC August Meeting Recap ✨

What a great August meeting we had! With back-to-school season approaching, we’re gearing up to relaunch our mentorship program—something we’re very excited about. This year will bring some new energy and an impactful ending event in the schools, and we can’t wait to get started.

We also want to give a special shoutout to two amazing first-time attendees:

👏 Christopher – A senior at Clarke University and member of the soccer team. He’s a great young man with fresh insight, and we’re excited to see him continue to join us.

👏 Anthony – Head Coach of the Iowa Power indoor arena football team, brand new to Dubuque. Their program is going to be incredible for our community. Please support their next game this Saturday Auguat 23 at 7 p.m. Some of our BMC members will be attending, and you can grab tickets using the link below. Make sure to also follow and share their page to show support!

Finally, none of this would be possible without the grant supported from the DRA. We are so grateful for this partnership and excited for what the next three years will bring. 🙌

Together, we’re building community, mentorship, and opportunities.

Good Morning and Happy Wednesday, Spot Family!

We’re open today from 5 AM to 5 PM, and don’t forget — free delivery is available from 7 AM to 11 AM!

I want to take a moment to thank everyone who came out yesterday or sent birthday wishes through deliveries, texts, and social media. I truly appreciate every message — you all made my birthday so meaningful.

A special shout-out goes to Lincoln Elementary School! The teachers came together and purchased drinks, and we were honored to provide free drinks to all the students as a reward for their hard work before the school year ends. Hearing over 100 students and staff sing "Happy Birthday" to me in unison was an unforgettable experience. Thank you!

Today, we’re also celebrating another important milestone:
Two years of sobriety for Alex! 🎉
This journey has been life-changing — my energy is through the roof, my body feels amazing, and I’m beyond grateful for making this choice.

Let’s make today just as amazing — see you all soon and have a fantastic day!
