he coronavirus has changed our lives in ways unimaginable; Jobs have been lost, school abruptly ended, milestone events postponed or cancelled, longstanding family businesses shutting their doors, depression from social isolation, and far too many precious lives lost. COVID-19 has affected us all in one way or another, and while we will continue to be impacted by this virus for some time to come, we are hopeful and look forward to when we can move past the quarantines, social distancing and loneliness, and be together again. For those of you that have had to postpone graduation parties, engagement parties, weddings, etc. we can’t wait to help you celebrate these momentous occasions with your loved ones in style in the future. We feel your losses of the events you’ve spent countless hours dreaming of and planning for and hope that you find solace in the extra time given to perfect the details, as
well as excitement in the anticipation, knowing your events will be that much more special. As 2020 seems to be at a standstill for so many, it’s hard to believe that it’s nearly summertime and soon enough the holidays will be here again. With Oktoberfest just around the corner, give us a call to help kick off the holiday season with one of Helga’s greatest specialties! Whether you’re hoping to spread holiday cheer throughout the office, or host extended family for a holiday feast, it’s never too early to start planning. If you’re a business owner, manager, or family member simply looking to bring some comradery and joy to your people, consider starting to plan future company picnics, team retreats, and family reunions. While securing your event date may be a fluid process right now, you can start to brainstorm locations, activities, themes and menus to spread joy, reconnect, boost morale and celebrate with family and/or friends!
