#InTheKnow: Miami's Social Distancing Events - Fourth of July Edition
The COVID-19 pandemic has certainly impacted Miami's vibrant energy and social scene. Nonetheless, the closing of Miami-Dade's beaches for the Fourth of July does not mean another boring weekend spent at home. Instead, here are some upcoming events and ways to make the next couple of days not only safe for you and your family, but memorable.
Rodrigo Garduno 54D Workouts:
Any body is a summer body, but gym closures should not stand in your way if you're looking to get in shape. This Fourth of July, join Rodrigo's 54D workouts. Virtual sessions take place every day around 11 a.m., featuring intense and exciting exercises on his Instagram account @ro54d.
Independence Weekend Drive-Thru Food Fair:

Set A Reminder For These Fourth of July Live Streams:
