A black and white flyer promoting Field Day's crowdfund campaign, complete with QR code. text reads: Help bring your new favorite chill spot to life! Field Day Books & Bottles: new and used books, local beverages, snacks, stationary, board games, plants, trivia and events.
All that said, Field Day is in our final fundraising stretch before we open this spring. If you can throw a couple bucks our way or share the campaign on your feed, we'd really appreciate it! You'll be helping folks all over, not just Al and I.
Thanks #booksky ♥️
