Thank you so much Brick and Motor Boutique for your generosity and for being so incredibly cool!! ❤️

During PRIDE Month, they donated a percentage of their sales to us here at Clock. We truly wouldn’t be here without our incredible community members. Thank you for showing up for us, supporting us, and donating during these hard times. It means more to us here at Clock than we can put into words.

And an extra bonus: they are also very stylish. I went shopping there for their anniversary celebration, and my new favorite item is my tomato cardigan. 🍅 Def check out Brick and Motor, shop local to keep your styling extra cool.

A gracious community member just dropped off a bunch of items for our food pantry. In those donations we received four dozen eggs and six sticks of salted butter! Since these items are perishable we want them to go to a loving home. Do you know of anyone in need of some grocery items, please send them our way. I will be here until 630pm and would love to pass these all out by the end of the night.
❤️ Thank you Michelle
