New floor on the way at ReStore

This floor needs to be replaced...and it will be.

ReStore Community Center will be closed from Dec. 17 and reopen on Jan. 5 with a new floor. The $15,000 project was supported by gifts. About $10,000 has been raised thus far from gifts and fundraisers. Inclined to give? Stop by with a donation. (Monty Siekerman)
