If you're planning to take in the excitement of the international soccer tournament, the Venetian Champions Club at Fairmont Dallas will be open through July 19, offering an indoor viewing experience in the hotel's historic Venetian Room.

The 4,400-square-foot fan zone features a massive 16-by-20-foot viewing screen, multiple TVs, three bars, interactive games, local craft beers, specialty cocktails, and game-day food specials, making it an easy spot to gather with friends or fellow fans.

One of the highlights is the Passport Cocktail experience. Throughout the tournament, guests can "travel" the world one cocktail at a time with drinks inspired by participating countries, including the Netherlands, Japan, England, Argentina, and more. Each featured cocktail earns a passport stamp, and completed passports can be turned in for a chance to win a luxury Fairmont Dallas experience.

Whether you're following every match or simply looking for a fun downtown outing, it's another way Dallas is embracing visitors and celebrating the global energy that's filling the city this summer.

A simple family meal can make a meaningful difference this summer.

From June 29 through July 26, participating Bojangles restaurants are supporting military families, veterans, and first responders through a fundraising campaign benefiting Folds of Honor North Texas. For every Big Bo Box sold, $1 will be donated to help provide educational scholarships for the spouses and children of those who have served our country and communities.

As the cost of college and vocational education continues to rise, these scholarships help open doors for families while honoring the sacrifices made by their loved ones.

Whether you're picking up dinner for the family or grabbing a meal on the go, your order can help support a student's future. The limited-time Big Bo Box includes Bojangles favorites like hand-breaded chicken, made-from-scratch buttermilk biscuits, Southern fixin's, and Legendary Iced Tea®, and is available in restaurant, through the drive-thru, on the Bojangles app, and via participating delivery services.

If you're planning a Bojangles run this month, it's an easy way to enjoy a meal while helping invest in the next generation of military and first responder families.

A bathroom remodel often starts with a simple realization: the space no longer fits the way you live.

Maybe storage is limited. Maybe the layout feels cramped. Maybe that oversized tub looked like a great idea years ago but now takes up valuable space. Or perhaps you're ready to create a bathroom that feels a little more relaxing at the end of a long day.

Before choosing tile, fixtures, or paint colors, it's worth taking a step back and looking at the room as a whole. The layout has a bigger impact on daily life than many people realize. A better vanity configuration, additional storage, or a larger shower can completely change how the space functions.

For smaller bathrooms, thoughtful design can make a surprising difference. Large-format tile, lighter finishes, floating vanities, and strategically placed mirrors can help a room feel more open without moving a single wall.

And while spa-inspired bathrooms continue to be popular, not everyone is looking for a luxury hotel feel. Some homeowners gravitate toward warmer, more traditional spaces with natural wood tones, softer lighting, and personal touches that make the room feel comfortable and lived-in.

The best bathroom design isn't about following trends. It's about creating a space that works for your routine, your style, and your home.

What's the one thing you'd change about your bathroom tomorrow if you could?

Whether you're actively planning a bathroom renovation or simply collecting ideas for the future, spending time on layout, storage, lighting, and functionality before making selections can make all the difference.

Texas Family Initiative (TFI) recently hosted its annual Swing Into Action! Golf Tournament at Mira Vista Country Club, bringing together community leaders, corporate partners and supporters for a day dedicated to helping children in foster care.
