Saluting Our Neighbor, Excelsior Youndstedts,  
On Their 15th Anniversary!

June 12, 2024

Congratulations to our next door neighbor, Youngstedts, on their 15th Anniversary in the Excelsior community! To celebrate, Youngstedts hosted a lunchtime event featuring FREE Maynards burgers and Adele's frozen custard, along with exciting promotions and giveaways. We contributed to the festivities with a bag toss game set up on CALI green turf and a raffle for a CALI 5' x 7' outdoor area rug. Despite a few raindrops, the grill was sizzling, and a good time was had by all.
