As we have done for the past seven years, our offices will be donned in pink decor in the month of October. During this time we will be selling ribbon/logos to raise money for Breast Cancer charities. Our staff will also be donating money to dress down during select days in October.

Due to the spike of COVID-19 cases in our area, it has been decided to cancel the Cool Kids Event set for September 25, 2021. This event is geared towards children, ages 0-12, who, unfortunately, are unable to get vaccinated at this time. This increases their risk for exposure and for the spread of this virus. We apologize for the cancellation; however, this decision was made out of an abundance of caution for the safety of our community and staff.
