Hello all!

I grew up in Melbourne Beach but moved away about 15 years ago. I visit my parents a few times a year.

I’m bringing a friend (46M) down for a long weekend and am trying to think of ways to fill the time. So far we have:

Friday dinner at D’Jons

Saturday: Long Doggers for lunch, putz around DT Melbourne, Meg’s for dinner

Sunday: Blueberry Muffin for breakfast, beach, dinner with a friend

Monday: ???

Looking for substitutions or spots to add, I’ve been out of the loop for some time. TIA!

Would anyone be interested in getting a group together for bowling at Shore Lanes in Palm Bay? I was looking to do their "rave bowling" (my name for it) but was hoping to find some cool, like-minded people who wanted to join.

From their site
Saturday ~ X-Factor Bowling (8:00pm – Midnight) Enjoy our X-Factor Lightshow — bowling a whole new way with the lanes pulsing, pins glowing, and music from your favorite artists! $17.00 per guest for three hours of unlimited bowling + $2.00 Shoe Rental

We gave these shelter dogs one job: pick a toy... and they each had their own way of doing it. 🤣🐾

Volunteers and staff coordinated a Toy Grab outing over the weekend for the 10 dogs who have been at the shelter the longest. Each dog was able to run free for 15 min, toss and tug on some toys, and get a spotlight in this social media video. They had a blast!

Thank you to the volunteers and staff for making this happen!

If you would like to meet any of them, they are anxiously waiting for you at the Brevard County Animal Shelter.

There are some old posts in the sub but I was hoping to learn some new (hopefully) info. Anyone have e info about car groups in brevard?

I’ve found some stuff on Facebook, Google, et al. But was hoping to get some input from folks before sticking my neck out.

I’m 23 been in brevard (Melbourne) for about 2 years. I bought a 92 Vette back in March and was hoping to find a group to meet some folks and talk cars etc.

Not into the hole “takeover” scene but at the same time don’t really want to spend the entire time with folks 30+ years older than me (no offense to our older car lovers. I appreciate y’all just want to also find some younger folk as well.)

Wednesday- Busta Tax Cap & the Band Back Together

Jul 22, 2026 

What the County Commission did yesterday was put a knife in the backs of taxpayers, and the way it was done, Julius Caesar could not have been more surprised.

It’s not that we weren’t expecting this, especially after the governor appointed the Church Lady to the interim term in the County Commission D-1 seat. The fix was in and it was none other than Thad the Impaler employing his old ways to advocate for a major tax increase. The rest of them aren’t off the hook. There was nary a sound of objection nor a suggestion of cutting any budget items before this potential increase was thrust upon us.

The Property Tax amendment has these officials afraid, afraid they’ll have to do their jobs and actually work on a budget instead of just throwing money around like it’s theirs. We’ll dig into this and show you how the vote at the end of yesterday’s commission meeting was not just busting the tax cap, but blowing it up entirely.

My son is supposed to start 1st grade at Odyssey, but after a really rough kindergarten year and summer (including being expelled from their summer camp because of behavioral issues), I’m questioning whether it’s still the right fit.

He’s incredibly bright and loves math, space, and science, but he has ADHD and is currently being evaluated for autism. Academics aren’t the issue, he struggles more with emotional regulation and gets overwhelmed in larger, busy classrooms.

We’re trying to decide whether to stay at Odyssey with an IEP/504 plan, transfer to Turner Elementary which I’ve heard has more resources for ESE, or apply to Learning Forward STREAM Academy.

I’d especially love to hear from parents of kids with ADHD, autism, or other ESE needs, particularly from these 3 schools, but also open to other options.

Any honest feedback (good or bad) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Ambulance or some utility truck of similar build toppled over and blocking highway, vehicles in ditch. Backed up for days.

EDIT: All clear as of 7:30PM

Looking for above, preferably in/around IHB, Eau Gallie, or West Melbourne. Patient bedside manner particularly important for my relative. TIA.

Over the last few days, when the water is running, my shower smells a little moldy, but totally normal when it's dried out. Today I noticed that the water coming out of my sink faucet also kind of smells moldy and the drinking fountains at my work have the same strange taste.

Is this just me or are the people noticing it too?

EDIT: Yup, after looking into this more, it seems like it's an algae bloom. I installed an inline filter on the cold side of my kitchen sink and that fixed the problem for the one sink.

my neighbor was out for a sunrise beach walk and was able to catch the tail end of a hatch! <3 <3 <3 beachside living

Anyone know when Emo nights are at Salty Fox in EGAD?

Is there anywhere bama fans meet to watch football games??

Im looking to adopt/buy a pair of fancy mice! All chain pet stores seem to just have feeder mice, plus I know chains don’t really take great care of their animals. There are just some with certain textures and colors I love! In our area or Orlando would work, but I’ve had no luck finding places online

Hi everyone, my boyfriend is turning 26 and he wants to go out to eat and drink with a couple of friends.

I saw intracoastal brewery and pineapples recommended a lot by locals. Which one do you guys think is better?

Anyone have any info?

Taking a vacation in Melbourne/indiatlantic in August. What are some must dos?? Would love some thrifting recs, parks, beaches, shopping, tattoo shops, and anything else you recommend!

Edit: willing to drive a little for things that are worth it. Already spending one day at universal.

As the title says, I'm looking for a couple of trading card gamers who are into FIesh and BIood or who may be interested in the game. If you've played or been interested in Magic the Gathering, Pokemon, or any other trading card games, FAB may be up your alley. There's weekly events but they're all in Orlando and it would be nice to have a couple locals to practice and play with.

Does anyone if there is a set day for people to go in person to get their Palm Bay HS schedules? Thanks in advance

Im not as youthful as I was in 2010, but im very happy right now.

I drive Uber sometimes and tonight I picked up a lady from the ER and the nurse that helped her in the wheelchair and I had a funny dialogue exchange and thought she was cute. Anyway, if anyone might know who this nurse would be I would love to ask her out haha

pepper plant on my screen porch.... something really likes the leaves...any advice?

Hi all! Anyone live in the KB Homes new construction at Gardens at Waterstone in Palm Bay? If you’ve lived there for over 6+ months, can you share your experience with your home? How is the community and HOA like? Any problems with your house or anything you regret?

Thinking of making an offer. Just want to know what the homeowners reviews are.

Hi folks. I am looking to connect with other no party affiliated voters in Brevard.
Please comment if you are up for getting together for a drink and discussion.
