Welcome to our July & August 2021 Newsletter! 

Wow, we are 6 months into 2021! The year seems to be flying by, and good news finally, Covid cases are finally on the decline & vaccinations are on the rise. Summer and grilling season has arrived, hopefully if we are all vigilant with keeping up covid protocol, it will be a summer spent back with family and friends!  Stay Safe!!
