I want to introduce you to a couple that’s become really near and dear to our family. Val and Ryan Hamilton are more than friends. Val is one of my kids’ jiu-jitsu coaches, and Ryan is a personal trainer who works with my wife and me. They’re also just all-around great people here in the Henderson community.
So when it came time to find someone to pop into local businesses and film content for our Instagram account, Val was a no-brainer. If you’re a local business owner and want to be featured on our Instagram and possibly in the newsletter, just reply with “Val!”
And if you want to learn more about Val, Ryan, their business, and their journey to becoming the fittest couple in Henderson, I recently had them on my podcast. Check it out HERE!

🍀 St. Patrick’s Day festival returns to Water Street
The Gist: Plans are officially set for the 58th annual St. Patrick’s Day Festival and Parade, returning to historic downtown Henderson March 13–15. The free, three-day event will fill Water Street with food, drinks, shopping, rides, and live entertainment. The parade is back too, and entries are now open for businesses, schools, and community groups.
Why It Matters: It’s one of Henderson’s biggest traditions, bringing thousands of neighbors together downtown each spring. Parade entries are open now through Feb. 22, and it’s always fun seeing familiar faces roll by!
