Save the Stihl Whiskey Bar

Donation protected
Hey friends and family of The Stihl-

Many people have inquired about what they can do to support (save) The Stihl Whiskey Bar.

An update: My brother Jason, the owner, has tried every way possible to secure the government funding, but as you know many small local companies didn't make the cut.  He has worked with multiple banks and tried every available option, and is still trying. 

At this point, his stress is palpable with the constant ups and downs.  He doesn't know if funds will ever come in, and if any do whether they will be enough to outlast this Covid storm.  Assuming the best, and that he can pay the bills long enough to reopen,  he will likely need to remove tables, limit patrons, etc.  

I can't sit around watching Jas lose the bar without trying one last effort to save it. Like many of you it is my "Cheers" where the staff know your name and greet you with a smile and healthy pour. 

Please, any and all contributions will help. I know Jason, and our family, his staff, and the patrons they all love would greatly appreciate it.  Sharing this post is very helpful, too!

Many thanks,  
 
Jenn
