About Us
Like many people who are new to an area, the question came up again and again:
“What’s going on this week?” Great things were happening all over town — live music, trivia nights, restaurant specials, community fundraisers, kids activities — but the information was scattered across social media pages, flyers, and word of mouth. It often took searching multiple places to figure out what was happening on a Friday night or where a family might go during the week.
The idea for 940events.com was born: create one place where the community can quickly discover what’s happening in the 940.

The site is designed to make it easy to browse, filter, and discover things to do around the area.
