Dear Residents, The Roy Business Advisory Board urges all residents to support our small businesses at this time. We need it more than ever! We are entering some very challenging times for local businesses. As of this writing, we have been asked to limit gatherings to 10 people or less. Dining rooms across the state are now closed, the panic shopping is slowing, and kids are all at home as schools are closed. Major sports events are canceled or postponed. Local spring sports for high school and Jr High are canceled. Many businesses including dance studios, martial arts, and competition sports are forced to temporarily close their doors. Clothing stores, boutiques, specialty shops are all seeing reduced sales. This effect will trickle down to every business in the nation. More than ever, small business needs your support! Big-box stores are struggling, but they often have ways to survive. The Small Business landscape will likely change forever if residents don’t support them now! Keep your children enrolled in their activities, get take-out at your favorite local restaurant, buy flowers or jewelry for your loved ones. Order new business cards, whatever you can do, before it's too late! Your local business will thank you.

We are pleased to highlight one local business that calls Roy "home." Tuscany Garden Reception Center. Hold your event - wedding, reception, ceremony, birthday party, etc. - in one of the most beautifully updated, truly historic buildings in Roy, Utah: the Tuscany Garden Reception Center. Raised in 1939, this historic barn features central air, two commercial kitchen spaces (open catering policy), and a surround-sound stereo system throughout. Keeping with the authentic charm of the building, the upper level highlights the original exposed arched ceiling beams. Coffered ceilings enrich the main level and foyer, where a gas fireplace in a stone surround greets those arriving through the main entrance. Tuscany Garden Reception Center can accommodate gatherings from 10 to 200 and is disability accessible. A reception hall, ceremony area, and dressing areas are offered, as is a beautiful outdoor garden and patio. Tuscany Garden has been under new ownership since 2017.
