They say do it scared but I say do it broke! Hey PMzies and temporary brokies and brokettes, welcome to the Brokie Calendar, the only guide to a soft lifestyle that is soft on the pocket. 

Preston Media has scoured social media for the upcoming events where you vibe on a budget! We change our calendar ever so often, so don’t miss the opportunity to see what we reel in. If you’re on hall or in Kingston, check out this month’s calendar and get over the summer bummer– Captain’s orders!
