Yoga with puppies is opening at Shops at Rockvale this weekend

Puppy Flow, a brand-new yoga studio that pairs a 45-minute beginner class with 30 minutes of unstructured puppy time, opens this weekend at Shops at Rockvale. Owner Steve Lawrence, a Paradise resident and entrepreneur, runs the format with up to eight puppies per class — sourced from family homes and trusted rescue adoption partners, with most already lined up with permanent homes. The 3,100-square-foot studio is at 35 S. Willowdale Dr., Suite 909, next to Reading China & Glass behind Olive Garden.

Classes start out Saturdays and Sundays, with weekday corporate and private sessions on the table later. Sign-ups and schedule at thepuppyflow.com. Yes, we know what you're thinking. Yes, you should go.

A Warwick Township company is building the UFC stage on the White House South Lawn

Tait Global, an entertainment staging company headquartered in Warwick Township, has started construction on the White House South Lawn for UFC Freedom 250, scheduled for 8 p.m. on Sunday, June 14. Fight card includes a lightweight title match — Ilia Topuria vs. Justin Gaethje — and a heavyweight interim title bout, Alex Pereira vs. Ciryl Gane. Livestream on Paramount+.

Tait test-built the custom open-air studio structure on Furnace Hills Pike in late April before shipping it to D.C. Senior marketing manager Tori Hartman declined further comment on the project. Quietly building the biggest stage in the country and saying nothing about it. Very Lancaster County of them.

Three new downtown Lancaster businesses just got CRIZ funding to build out their spaces

The Lancaster City CRIZ Authority Board approved three Small Business Financial Assistance Grants this week. The recipients: Nori Taco LLC for furniture, fixtures, and equipment at a brand-new quick-service restaurant at 126 N. Prince St.; River Wealth Advisors LLC for the buildout of a financial services office at 101 N. Queen St., Suite 301; and Pocket Books Shop LLC for leasehold improvements at the downtown bookstore at 23 N. Prince St. Dollar amounts on the grants weren't disclosed in the agenda.

Net effect for downtown: a new taco joint, a new advisor office, and more shelf space at one of the city's best new bookstores. (Pocket Books on Prince has been open since fall 2025 but this funds the next phase.) Three new fixtures on three downtown blocks.
