COMMUNITY COLLABORATIONS
There is nothing that we get more pleasure out of then partnering with a local group for the benefit of each party. In a matter of a couple of days, we will begin selling break-open tickets with the majority of the proceeds going to benefit the Marathon Figure Skating Club. The next time you’re looking to break open some pull tabs, please keep us in mind- it’s for a good cause!
We continue to meet regularly with the owner of Marathon Theatre for what should be a much anticipated and well attended NHL 12 gaming tournament. This tournament will be open to 24 participants and will be taking place from September 30th to October 2nd. Prizes will be awarded!
