It’s not worth wasting words on how the coronavirus pandemic has introduced peril, chaos, and grief to the lives of so many. We all know the grim reality.
The employees of Simon’s Tavern are not immune to this reality. No business for Simon’s means no income for them.
Simon’s is doing everything possible to stay open once everyone is past the worst of this pandemic, and still be a daily, weekly, or even just special occasion destination for the family Simons has developed since opening in 1934. A huge part of this is taking care of the beloved team while Simon's is closed so that it’s easier for them to come back once they’re open again
All proceeds raised will go to the employees of Simon’s Tavern. I’m a regular who's setting up and helping promote this GoFundMe; all funds raised will be administered by Simon’s owner Scott Martin.
Please be generous. Glögg on me if you catch me there when we’re through this.
By the way: Simon's on CBS Sunday Morning. Enjoy. https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/sun-never-sets-for-some-neighborhood-dives/
