To our PRC Family,

Last December, we were fortunate enough to wrap up season number seven. Lucky seven! It seems like just yesterday that we opened our doors — really having NO idea what we were doing 😁. But with an amazing staff and an even more amazing community around us, we figured a few things out and managed to build a pretty incredible little shop. For that, and all of you, we are eternally grateful.

As the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. We have made the decision to close our doors and move forward with the next chapter for us and our families. The courtyard will always hold a special place in our hearts.

We want to take a moment and thank every single kiddo who has graced us with their presence working in the shop over the years. Emma, Nico, Bridget, Zach, Bobby, Chris, Casey, Amanda, Garrett, Jonah, Nick, Nathan, Nathaniel, Carter, Arooj, Amelia, and Alex….they made this place possible and watching them grow up into pretty awesome people has truly been a gift. We’d also be remiss not to thank Jeni Porter and Little Market Café for being kick ass neighbors these last seven years.

Taharka lovers, never fear! We do believe the new owners will also be serving the best ice cream around. Stay tuned for their updates and we wish them nothing but the best in OEC!

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We never could have achieved what we did without all of you.

Much love (and ice cream),

Julia and Donna Sanger
💜

As a small business owner, you always want every day to be the best day. For your customers, for your staff. All of it. You get a brief moment to make an impression and you always want it to be memorable. You all are what make us possible.

As a small business owner, it is always on you. You don’t necessarily have a corporate team. You don’t necessarily have people who can step in and make it happen when you can’t.

As a small business owner, sometimes life…just lifes. And your priorities have to shift.

To anyone who tried to come see us today and we weren’t open, I apologize. To anyone who wanted something we didn’t have, I apologize. To anyone who’s experience wasn’t what they’d hoped for, I apologize. Certainly never our intention to give you anything but the best.

To my staff (kiddos, at that) who stepped in and stepped up and did the best they could with what they had…thank you. Couldn’t do it without you.

To anyone we let down today, please consider visitng another day and remember that we are subject to “life” just like all of you.

We will be closed on Sunday, August 31st. See you all on Wednesday!

💜🍨
