You can also watch a video of the Latte Art Throw-down by clicking here.įalcon Athletics has had no shortage of accolades this past decade. To learn more about the Barista Championship, click here. Shortly after the barista championship, Flatlands hosted a Latte Art Throw-down which had 16 baristas from the 419 area creating beautiful and delicious drinks. So seriously in fact, that two baristas from Flatlands made it to the Specialty Coffee Association National Barista Championship in 2019. I think it’s safe to say that we take our coffee seriously in BG. This festival has quickly become a summer favorite and has something for the whole family to enjoy! From kids activities to live music and a beer tent, this festival is all about promoting a neighborly atmosphere in our Downtown. Held on the 3rd Friday in Bowling Green’s Summer months, Firefly Nights Festival came to Downtown Bowling Green in 2018. The clouds lifted, the paint dried, and we had brand new roads to drive on! What was once a plain exit off of Interstate 75, became a beautiful roundabout that invited people into Bowling Green! Think we’re being dramatic (we probably are)? Take a drive out there at night when the intersection is lit up, and you’ll see what we mean. Take a look at this sweet photo and video from our friend ZakFilms that feature these letters!Ĭonstruction was no joke in 2019! It seemed that everywhere was under construction and it was never going to end. In the Spring/Early Summer of 2019, BGSU installed huge letters in their Union Oval (perfect for prospective and current students to snap a photo). You can learn more about this prestigious award here. They also won an Arts and Business Partnership award from Americans for the Arts. This past year brought about their 30th anniversary and they celebrated with a weekend of great music by local artists. Check out some of the photos from the event!Ģ019 was a big year for Grounds for Thought. Bikes of all kinds parked outside of the Bowling Green Buffalo Wild Wings and community members were invited to come out and see all of the vintage bikes. The run is a cross country ride that features about 100 riders on motorcycles that were made before 1929. The Motorcycle Cannonball Run made a stop in Bowling Green in 2018. Check out some of the pictures from the 2019 Kickoff Celebration here. While it rained through much of the 2019 festivities, the Wood County Fairgrounds were very gracious in letting the festivities continue indoors at their new Pavilion. The 2019 visit to Bowling Green was the 5th time GOBA had an overnight stay here making it the most of any Ohio Community. The Great Ohio Bicycle Adventure (or GOBA) came back twice this past decade. They celebrated with a ribbon cutting for their remodeling and acquisition of a new press.

The 2018 poster also won the Sunshine Artist Award. The festival also won Ohio Magazine’s Best Festival in Ohio for the 2017, 2018, and 2019 years. The poster for the 2017 festival won a silver ADDY award, Sunshine Artist Most Creative Concept, and Sunshine Artist Top 200. In 2017, the Black Swamp Arts Festival celebra ted its 25th year as a festival. Probably the best thing to think about right now is a summer day at the BG City Pool and Water Park! Remember when the Water Park first opened in 2013? Take a look at this great video by the Sentinel Tribune and plan on getting a pool pass for the summer so you can spend the warmer days poolside! The completion of the Bowling Green City Pool and Water Park.However, we’re going to take things one step further and look back on the entire decade! So sit back, grab your favorite hot beverage, and reminisce with us. Another year has come and gone and it’s time for the yearly reflection.
