Lollipop Garden Closing

From the owners:

Hello everyone,

It is with great sadness that we have to announce the closing of Lollipop Garden.
As many of you know, we have faced financial difficulties since the warm weather has arrived and we have been trying to come up with a temporary arrangement with our landlord. Well, we did have an arrangement but late Friday we have received a phone call from the landlord who simply said that (for whatever reason) the arrangement we had will not work for him and asked that we be out of the premises by the end of next week. Needless to say, we are devastated. We asked for a little break on the rent and were led to believe that our request was accepted. The landlord's change of mind on Friday caught us totally off guard and now we have no choice but to close our doors for good since we do not have sufficient funds to cover the rent.

I know this may sound really "cheap" but we would like to ask for one last and final support from the community to help us out with this sudden move. We will be open for open play all of next week at regular admission price so please stop by and say hello. All classes however have been canceled. We are also selling everything at Lollipop Garden. We will say our final good-bye on Thursday and will be open until 8:00. We want to say thank you to all of you who have supported us in the last 7 months and we apologize to those who just found us in the last few weeks.
