PAVILION NEWS It’s another busy summer for us & we’re gearing up for the next holiday. To benefit our members, a few changes will be made. Due to the large volume of members arriving in the evening, we will be

extending the closing hours. However, to lower our employee cost we will be opening later in the afternoon. The new hours will begin Friday, August 1st and are as follows: Sunday – Closed Mon-Thur – 4pm-10pm Fri & Sat – 4pm – 11pm To make your visit a more pleasurable experience, the Cloud 9 maintenance staff will be installing “whirlybirds” (exhaust fans) on top of the Pavilion roof. We also will be changing the ordering process. We soon will have an order/pay window along with a pick-up window. We will be offering 12 flavors at the pavilion & would like the members help in deciding what flavors to keep. Currently the available flavors are: Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Rocky Road, Bunny Tracks, Butter Pecan, No Sugar Butter Pecan, Orange Sherbet, Mint Chocolate Chip, Birthday Party, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Banana Split, Huckelberry, Rainbow Sherbet & Raspberry Sherbet. We will be keeping Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Butter Pecan, No Sugar Butter Pecan & Orange sherbet. We will be accepting your vote from now until July 30th. Come in cast your vote for your favorite ice cream (ballots available @ Pavilion/ one vote per visit please).

Our pizza sales are doing well. Remember our Wednesday Special, 1-topping pizza for $7.49. Our thick or thin loaded pizzas for $9.50 available Mon – Sat. Stop by get a pizza for dinner & get an ice cream treat for dessert all in one convenient location. We will be showing movies on Friday & Saturday nights @ 8:00pm (refer to 9-lines for movie listing). Due to the ever-increasing costs of products & services, it has been necessary

for these changes to be made. It is still primary our goal to keep providing our premium services to our members, and at the same time, keep our inventory & employee cost down. Thank You For Your Continued Support; Pavilion Staff
