FRIDAY BRIEFING โ I'LL BE THINKING ABOUT YOU
https://mailchi.mp/bixbyknollsinfo/bixby-brief-may-22-10408383
Hi everyone!
It is a bittersweet week in the office as we bid farewell to our wonderful intern, Magerly. This is her final week with us, and we are so incredibly grateful to have had her on the team for the past year. She has done phenomenal work during her time here, including spearheading the rebranding of our community foundation and designing our beautiful new street banners. Beyond her talent, she has been a source of nothing but positive energy in the office, and we are going to miss her immensely.
As we look toward the weekend, we want to shine a light on one of our local gems, The Merchant. They are currently facing a significant disruption to their services due to the nearby firehouse construction, and they really need our communityโs support right now. Please consider heading over this weekend to show them some love. They are serving up their fantastic breakfast burritos this Friday through Sunday, and it is the perfect way to support a local business during a tough time.
Yes, there is A LOT here, but isnโt it great that there is so much happening in the neighborhood? We have a busy season ahead, so there is plenty to look forward to in the coming weeks. First Fridays makes its highly anticipated return on June 5th, and you should definitely save the date for our first Concert in the Park(ing Lot) on June 22nd. If you are looking for family-friendly activities, Deep Blue Swim School is hosting a Water Safety Day on May 31st, and don't forget to stop by tomorrow to celebrate the official grand opening of Bixby Provisions!
