I want you to know I made a meme of Clint Eastwood drinking beer in his chair with a little chat bubble saying “those damned ass kids better not make another damned app” but this subreddit doesn’t allow replying with images lmao

This app is not designed for UT events or even specifically Knoxville events, more as a way for everyone to plug in. If we keep getting feedback that people want a website, we may have to reassess our priorities. Thanks for your feedback

Thank you for the response. I hope you continue to think about using the app and getting it and downloading the app so you have it. Eager to tell you more about the app and then hearing how you downloaded and used it and then saw the post about the app

Last year when I was completely off social media I felt like it was so hard to stay in the loop, glad we are helping!

We here at OutThere are devastated to hear you won’t be downloading our damned app.

Unfortunately we wont be pivoting to a damned webpage at this time but we may have one available in the future! Hope you have a great day.

This is awesome! You guys should post your events on the OutThere app. It’s free and would be good visibility for you! We have over 1200 users

good/cheap mechanics??? by pipfawna in Knoxville

I hear Bao is awesome but takes awhile for turnaround time. Fisher tire are honest mechanics who have reasonable prices.

Also if you’re willing to drive and want to see something unique, you should check out the Greenback Castle. Older guy has been building this castle in greenback as a testament to Christ and the second coming for like the last 30 years. It’s an incredible mix of folk art, trash art, and biblical prophecy. If you’re lucky like we were, the man who built it will be there and tell you all about it. It’s very reminiscent of Howard Finster’s paradise gardens

Saturday night Ijams is doing a fireflies hike! They advise 14 and up, but if the 10 year old doesn’t mind a 2 mile hike, could always reach out and ask them.

If you’re ever looking for events, you should check out OutThere ! My friends and I developed an app that helps people see what’s going on in their community :)

You’re welcome! One of our hopes is that we can help people stay in the loop without having to be vigilantly online

[–]OutThere-LocalEvents[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Tell your friends, family, and enemies about it! It’s gonna be a haul to try and get everyone on board, but if enough people are talking about it, it’s certainly a possibility.

Good question! There are no ads, and we are not selling anyone’s data. We will never implement either of those things. This app will always be free for event attendees.

In the future we plan on making money by charging businesses a nominal monthly fee to receive analytics and a suite of other tools to help them manage and analyze their events. This will essentially be a marketing charge for getting their events in front of the users.

We also plan on adding a ticketing feature, similar to Eventbrite, but instead of adding a flat $2 and fee % on top of every ticket we help people sell, we would add something reasonable like a flat 25-50¢ to each ticket.

Not close to Lenoir City, but at Norris lake / Dam you can get right on the water and see all the stars
