A New Dog Park, A FREE Football Clinic and Trivia?! - This Week's Events in Columbus
February 26, 2026 Edition

March is already upon us! Well, not yet, but this upcoming week does flow into March. Man, where does the time go? We have a nice variety of events this week, from big music to trivia and free clinics for kids. As always, I’ve tried to include something for everybody.
With that said, if this newsletter has helped you discover something fun in Columbus, or if you just want to help support the time that goes into it each week, consider buying me a coffee. buymeacoffee.com/fountaincitysource
That’s completely optional, I’m just grateful you’re all here and enjoying the newsletter.
With that said, let's get to the good stuff!
Events
1. Opening Night at The Yard

Even if you don't have a dog, this one is good to see. The spot near Scofflaw and Moe's that used to be Fetch Dog Park is reopening! The Yard is a new club for dogs. Proceeds from this park benefit Paws Humane Society so you can let your dog get some exercise, grab some food or beverages from the aforementioned Scofflaw and Moe’s, and contribute to a good cause all at one time. It’s great to see this space put to use again!
Location: The Yard (just outside Scofflaw)
Date: Friday, Feb 27th
Time: 5:00 PM - 10:00 PM

Founded by Motown legend Smokey Robinson, The Miracles produced an amazing 26 Top 40 songs. They truly paved the way for other Motown artists and left a lasting impact on the music industry as a whole. They are led today by "Sydney Justin", the longest running Miracles lead singer. The Miracles will be joined by special guests, The Delfonics, for a night of Motown favorites!
