COVID-19 NOTICE: All participants will be required to present proof of vax and recent booster. Thanks for your understanding in this matter of public health.
Do please note that we will be closed for Thanksgiving and also for the artificial shopping frenzy session that some call Black Friday. We think you should refrain from shopping on those days; if enough of us do so, the big boxes will let their staff enjoy the holiday with their families. Then come to us on Saturday and just let that debit card rip!
