Hi Jason, I met you at the Smart Tab Patio Launch


Party and Save the Monarch Butterfly fundraiser. I was going to contact Bren- lee, but lost her contact info. However, I was able to talk to her that night, and I let her know that I really appreciated the heartfelt content of the article you wrote for her newspaper. Though I don’t know you closely, I

Our mistake In the last issue, we mentioned that the


Exchange Bartending School was affili- ated with all 10 of Stephen Hua's estab- lishments, including Te Ranch Saloon. Hua is a partner is most of the school's


partner establishments, and in fact, Te Ranch Saloon closed early this year. We regret the error.


Carbone's infamous coal-fired pizza. Young creatives mix and mingle. In our "Now you know" section, we


wrote that St. Norbert Farmers Market operates Wednesdays and Sundays, when in fact the market is open on Wednesdays and Saturdays on the weekend, and closed Sundays. We regret the mistake.
