🚨 Weather Update for Ladies Night! 🚨

We are closely monitoring the weather forecast for Ladies Night on Thursday, June 11.

Because the event is indoors, we currently plan to continue as scheduled if the weather is limited to rain or non-severe storms.

However, safety comes first. If severe weather develops in our area, including tornado warnings, dangerous winds, or conditions that make travel unsafe, we will postpone and reschedule the event.

Please keep an eye on this page for updates. We will communicate any changes as early as possible.

We’re hopeful the weather cooperates, but we want everyone to make safe decisions and stay home if conditions become dangerous.

Ladies Night is going to be quite the evening! 🌸✨
