Please support us and our application for a liquor license waiver at the July 14 Salt Lake City Council public hearing. The meeting will be at 7:00pm, in room 315 of the City Building, 451 South State Street. Your attendance at the public hearing will get you an invitation to the party we will throw once we get the liquor license!
