ACL & Livestrong Specials Oct. 2-4, 2009
Hi everyone!
Flipnotics has lots of exciting things going on this ACL weekend! First, there will live music each night from some of the best musicians in town!!
Second, we will be selling bottled water, coffee, iced tea, beer, bandanas, shirts and more ACL necessities all weekend – outside our patio, in our parking lot, and in the shop!
Livestrong Day is a national event to raise money for the Lance Armstrong Foundation. Flipnotics will proudly feature our Strawberry Mocha (hot and iced) all weekend in honor of Livestrong Day! 15% of the profits from this drink will be directly donated to the Lance Armstrong Foundation. Our fundraising goal is $1000, and we need your help to reach it!
Donate in the store or online. Check out our Livestrong page: http://www.livestrong.org/grassroots2009/lisakettyle
Relaunch Party – Success!!!
