Notes from the Chief

Well good news…We may have found the young man who is missing the tip of his finger. Not sure if it can be reattached or not. On the other hand, I did have a male party ask me if we ever find an extra arm, that he could use one. 

Turkey Days 2024 is coming this weekend, and we ask that everyone be safe and respectful while out and about.  

A friendly reminder that alcohol is not allowed in public areas unless in the fenced area of an event. Let’s all have a great weekend, and I will leave you with this quote:
