  • Ryan Krivosh, with our bartender for the event. As always Around the Corner did a magnificent job hosting the party and providing everything that was needed. I am so happy to see Ryan at the helm of the Krivosh empire, good family, good kid.

  • The Marklings at the door thanking all for stopping by and sharing the evening with them, their supporters and friends. I have to admit it was a pleasure attending a poltiical event that had zero politics, it truly was like neighbors just talking about Lakewood. Thank you both.
