撒九游国际棋牌辅助会举办九游国际棋牌九游国际棋牌咖啡店盛大开幕暨命名庆典

沃特敦，纽约——撒九游国际棋牌辅助会于2024年2月1日在撒九游国际棋牌九游国际棋牌九游国际棋牌的正门内举办了盛大的开业和命名庆祝活动。

原来的咖啡店位于主大厅另一端的辅助礼品店对面，需要为急诊科的行为健康部门建造额外的房间。行为健康危机产生了对这些额外床位的需求，这一举措将适应这一规定。

我们举行了一场命名比赛，在收到来自撒九游国际棋牌看护人的109个建议后，由保留决议专家Ashlee Bucy提交的“撒九游国际棋牌辅助会啜饮”这个名字被辅助会董事会选中。此外，在盛大的开业仪式上宣布，这家咖啡店现在九游会提供来自Chrissy Beanz的美味烘焙食品和来自当地供应商的特色咖啡豆。

助理会主席Shawna cuuli说：“我们很高兴看到这么多撒九游国际棋牌护理员和社区成员参加这次活动。九游国际棋牌九游国际棋牌的咖啡店和礼品店向所有人开放，我们很自豪能展示当地的产品和供应商。”

Shawna补充说：“除了撒九游国际棋牌辅助委员会的成员外，我们很高兴有这么多的辅助成员能够参加这次活动，包括Susan Johnson、Janet George、Lu Green、Cynthia Ahlheim、Ann Van Slyke和Patti Schreck。”
