each and every one of you. We appreciate your patronage
and patience as we navigate through our “new normal”!
It is still uncertain as to when we will resume FRIDAY

quality dinners at a reasonable price but once again, due to
the increase in food costs, we are unable to do so at this
time. Because of the restrictions put on us, we are allowed
to have a band but dancing is prohibited. So once again,
we appreciate your patience and look forward to welcoming
you back as the state reopens and restrictions are li(ed!
&ank you,
