As I sit here reflecting on this weekend, I’m honestly overwhelmed with gratitude.
People saw the drinks, the smiles, the long lines, and the fun… but what they didn’t see were the countless hours behind the scenes, the exhaustion, the loading and unloading, the early mornings, the late nights, and the incredible people who made it all possible.
I have to start with Catelynn
I truly don’t know how to thank her enough. She worked every single day between the shop and the America 250 event. She put in 7 AM to 10 PM shifts two days in a row, never complained, never slowed down, and gave every customer the same smile and energy from the first drink to the last. Watching someone care about Mayhem the way she does is something I’ll never take for granted.
To Noah and Maureen… thank you. Thank you for spending countless hours helping us plan, set up, tear down, load, unload, run errands, and do all the things that no one ever sees. You gave up your own time to help make this weekend a success, and I hope you know how much that meant to me. Mayhem is better because of your kindness and willingness to help.
To Jon and Elizabeth, thank you for always being willing to jump in wherever we needed you. Whether it was helping with the event, lending an extra set of hands, or simply being part of our support system, your generosity never goes unnoticed.
And to our newest team member, Caleb… welcome to Mayhem! 😂 You got thrown right into one of the busiest weekends we’ve ever had, and you handled it like a pro. Thank you for showing up, working hard, and embracing the chaos with such a great attitude. We’re so excited to have you on this journey with us.
Owning a small business has taught me that success is never built by one person. It’s built by people who believe in your dream enough to give their time, their energy, and sometimes their entire weekend to help make it happen.
From the bottom of my heart… thank you. I see every hour, every sacrifice, every act of kindness, and every person who poured into Mayhem this weekend.
I couldn’t do this without you, and I never want to.
We are so incredibly blessed. ❤️
