I rented this place for a celebration of life for my mother. When I met with the staffer, I told…read moreher I didn't have all the details yet because I was working on securing a location. We filled out the paper work and she told me I had use of the place for the entire day, so my event time didn't really matter. I put down my event time was until 4. They sent me a letter refusing to return any of the $300 deposit I paid because I went over the time of 4pm. (And because they say I didn't sweep and mop, I did sweep). If my event ended at 4, how would I break down and clean and be out by 4. But that didn't matter because she told me I had all day. I feel like this is a scam to keep the deposit. Additionally when I paid for the use, she did not tell me that they charge a credit card fee for using my credit card. If I had known they were going to charge an extra $24, I would have paid in cash. I didn't know until after she already charged my card. The place itself was just ok, old looking, could use some updating and fresh coat of paint. Not worth the price, and I was told it included the use of tv displays but no one could show me how to use it the day of my event, so it really wasn't included.

When it come to preparing food, their kitchen really makes it easy when we serve our own food and caterers find it useful as well. I was really impressed with how many people we could seat and still have room for people to dance. Our DJ liked the area on the stage for him to set up. You can't go wrong with the price and the great service makes this a hell of a bargain.

Clovis Veterans Memorial District memorializes Veterans and Military Dogs, as well as the…read moreinternment of Japanese Americans during World War II. It has several memorials to U.S. Military, Military Dogs and Veterans; and provide facilities and support programs to promote a legacy of Military Service. It serves as an elegant world-class educational center to present and preserve regional history, with an emphasis on Veterans of the Clovis community. The structures invite quiet contemplation as one wanders through the memorials. Here is Hallowed, Sacred and Desecrated ground. That means never is yelling done here and no playing or games are to be played here. That includes pokeman players. For the sacrifices of Veterans must always be remembered and respected for they gave their tomorrows for our today. Special districts are a form of local government governed by an elected Board of Directors created by a local community to meet a specific need. Inadequate tax bases and competing demands for existing taxes make it hard for cities and counties to provide all the services their citizens desire. When residents or landowners want new services or higher levels of existing services, they can form a district to pay for and administer them. It is clear that a lot of pride and love went into the creation of these memorials and goes into maintaining them. This place is classy, clean and disabled-friendly. The floors are glossy, there are plenty of bathrooms and they are fresh and stocked. Many who work here are volunteers for as per Acts 20:35 ESV / "In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive."" As we walked the memorials, tears came as I again remember the words of General Norman Schwarzkopf Jr., United States Army (Ret.) Veteran, that "the more we sweat in Peace, the less we bleed in war." Those words should be and always must be the war standard that we hold every politician to. For "The military don't start wars. Politicians start war." correctly said General William Westmoreland, United States Army (Ret.) Veteran. That's why I support that all elected or appointed politicians who aren't currently Serving or haven't Served in America's Armed Forces, are required to spend the first six weeks of each of their terms in the front lines / combat zone hospital unit. Clovis Veterans Memorial District tells a terrifying story that war is never a nice place to visit, and no one wants to live there. It is a special district established 11 June 1946. In 1946, Ernest Hemingway wrote, "Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime." That's why I also support that all who aren't currently Serving or haven't Served in America's Armed Forces, are required to pay an annual War Tax of 10% of their gross income. I also support a draft for all with no exemptions. CDC rules are practiced here.

I've been here a few times and my last visit was just ok, this time around it was pure bliss…read more My wife and I took advantage of a kid free day and some beautiful weather and enjoyed a few sips on their back patio. This is just a beer bar, so beers and seltzers only. I went with the Crow and Wolf Ocean Blast seltzer; a blue coconut, mango, pineapple, and lime beverage. Insanely good and refreshing on a hot afternoon. My wife went a peach seltzer that was just as tasty. We sat in the backyard area, that offers plenty of seating, a few TVs, and a ordering window so you don't need to head to the inside bar to order more drinks. The out area has smoking and non-smoking sections and is dog friendly, but they must be leashed. For food, we went the tri-tip BBQ pizza and a soft pretzel. The pizza was delicious and the perfect size for two people. Huge chunks of tri-tip, spicy BBQ sauce, and very cheesy. I asked for jalapenos on the side for an extra kick of heat. Right now is the perfect time to hit up this place since the weather has been so beautiful. Make sure to check their Instagram page for live music and keep supporting local!

They had lots of outside tables, lounge chairs, live music, a fire pit, and games like Jenga and corn hole. They also had a bar with beers but no cock tails. They had a little arcade area with indoor seating. We ended up playing ping pong which was fun but since it was dark they didn't have good lighting beside the one light bulb from the wall. I got a dark horse drink which was pretty good. They had small bathrooms but I liked how they decorated St Patrick's theme. They also sold food and snacks. There was a cute cat in the cafe too. The music was cool and even saw a couple people dancing. It's a nice spot to bring your friends or go on a date night.
