Hello Greater Alton area! 😁
⏱️ The 24 hour countdown has started. Are you ready? 👀🔥
PLEASE read this post prior to arrival.
For any questions, I’ve included an FAQ at the bottom.

⸻
HOW: (PLEASE READ)
Okay party people — this is going to be a strict ship to ensure order, smoothness, and most importantly SAFETY!!
We have attached images from multiple angles showing how to pull in and continue the line.
(Please note this is a visual, not exact… I am also no artist 😅)
We will form 2 lines in the Mr. Everything parking lot FIRST, as shown below.
🚗 We will line as many cars in the Alton Little Theater parking lot as our “next in line.”
Remaining cars will line down N Henry St.
⚠️ DO NOT BLOCK DRIVEWAYS, THE ROAD, OR PARKED CARS.
When pulling into the Alton Little Theater parking lot, you will take an immediate left and follow the cones to weave through the lot.
As a car leaves the Mr. Everything lot, the next car will be directed to pull:
➡️ from Alton Little Theater → Mr. Everything
➡️ from N Henry → Alton Little Theater
We will have people in the parking lots to assist with these logistics.
Once in the Mr. Everything parking lot — we will come to your car, take your order, take your payment, and bring your food and change/card back out to you.
✅ You do NOT need to leave your vehicle at any time during this process.
⸻
FAQ:
WHAT PAYMENT METHODS WILL YOU ACCEPT?
💵 Cash or 💳 card!
IS THERE AN ORDER LIMIT?
Yes — to be sure we get through as many customers as possible:
2 orders of tenders per person in each vehicle.
EXAMPLE: if there is one person in the vehicle, you may purchase up to 2 orders; if there are 2 people in the vehicle, you may purchase up to 4 orders; etc.
CAN WE WALK UP OR IS IT VEHICLES ONLY?
Of course you can walk up! Please just be patient — we will also be taking vehicle orders in the lot FIRST.
WILL THERE BE A WAIT TIME?
We are very prepared to see as many of you as possible and as quickly as possible.
However, the line may catch up to us at some point.
HOW WILL WE KNOW WHEN/IF YOU’RE SOLD OUT?
We are very prepared, but if we get to a point we are running low, we will post a warning announcement on Facebook.
When/if we officially sell out, we will notify you via Facebook as well.
IT’S GOING TO BE SO COLD… WILL WE HAVE TO STAND OUTSIDE?
Absolutely not! Everyone will remain in their cars for this process.
You will NOT HAVE to exit your vehicle at any point.
If you choose to walk up, we cannot guarantee it will be a short wait — vehicles already in line will be helped first.
CAN WE TAKE PHOTOS?
YES! We encourage you to take as many photos as you please and share them wherever you’d like!
Just tag us — we want to be in on the fun 😉📸
CAN WE BOOK YOU FOR EVENTS?
We are so grateful for all these comments and messages! 🤎
However, this is a trial run and we don’t have anything set in stone yet.
That being said — stay up to date on our plans and calendar opening right here on Facebook!
IS THIS THE WOODEN FAMILY?
Well of course! 😁
You can expect to see quite a few familiar family faces — and ALL of us are excited to see you again!
See you tomorrow, Alton!🤗
