If you would like to help, the store workers suggest you E-mail these three board members:
Chairman Keith.cowan@gmail.com
Member ron@pwcpa.com
Member efgebaide@yahoo.com

Either read and write a personal note or just send "I support the workers"

Actions were delayed last year after customer complaints mounted so this campaign has a real shot at helping those risking years of service and dedicated to maintaining their family tradition.

Edit for spelling like a moron....I had the chairman's name wrong.Sorry
