Fun at Floyd’s

Love, Sue

"Celebrity" bartenders have recently been working Wednesday nights at Floyd's in Victoria to help fund marketing efforts and downtown business events during these summer months of 2012 and the Highway 5 construction season. All tips given to the celebrity bartenders are being donated to the Victoria Business Owners Association. Rick and Lois Plocher, owners of Floyd's, are contributing up to $500 per celebrity night in matching funds to the effort.

On Wednesday evening, May 23rd, the celebrity bartenders were Father Bob White, right, priest at St. Victoria Catholic Church, and Rick Stucki, popular parishioner at the church. Most of the patrons that evening were members of St. Victoria.
