    Beat Summer Boredom in Tunica

    Written by Matt Jordan, Lifestyle/Entertainment

    Recently, I was looking for something to do one Saturday afternoon. I was bored out of my mind and couldn’t stand lying around the house anymore, so I decided to take a drive to downtown Tunica. Tunica Main Street has always been a nice place to meet up with friends and family for the Alive After 5 concerts, but I never really spend much time there unless I’m headed to Crawfish Alley at the Rivergate Festival or to the Levee Shack inside the Tunica Pharmacy to pick up a gift for my mother. This time I decided to stop by and pick up a map of Tunica Main Street and a visitor’s guide, which you can find by clicking here. (more…)

    Spring into Something New in Tunica

    Written by Chrissy Garner for Travel Tunica

    The signs of spring were abundant this past weekend in Tunica.  The weather was gorgeous!  While walking the dog, I came across blooming irises and tulips, a baby turtle and a cardinal.  All these things reminded me that it’s the time for renewal and probably a little spring-cleaning.  Typically, I associate spring-cleaning with dusting the blinds, washing the windows and rearranging the furniture, but this year, I’m all about working on cleaning out my closets.
