Congratulations on completing your first week of social distancing. We have a short update on some local ways to help small businesses. I talked to some local charities about how this is affecting them - and how we can help too. As always, if there's something we missed just reply to this email and we'll get it added.

How to help.

Here's some shop local ways you can help (and get some much needed provisions)

Short Finger Brewing Co.
If you postal code starts with N2, you can get free home delivery with the purchase of one growler of beer. Select "Free KW Red Truck Delivery" when picking your shipping option. Rob will drop the beer off, knock on your door and then disappear like a stork dropping off a baby. Orders need to be in by 2 pm today. (That's not where babies come from. -Ed.)

The Crumby Cookie Dough Co.
They were getting ready to open right before we all had to lock ourselves away. You can order from them using Uber Eats and they also have gift cards available for purchase online.

Goodvibes Juice Co.
Free home delivery on orders over $40. Can never have enough Sick Day shots.

Descendants Beer & Beverage Co.
The good folks there have their bottle shop online now too - pick up at the brewery. They're doing online trivia too!

Arabella Park Beer Bar
You can order some of their bottles and cans via Indie Ale House to be picked up outside the bar. Just select KW FLAT RATE PICKUP when ordering and use code YKFPickup to waive delivery fees. Orders need to be in by Saturday at 11.

Arabella Park Takeout
Starting today at 11:30, you can order your favourites as takeout - menu and ordering system up later this morning. (Those chip truck fries. -Ed.)

Looking for more places to support, check out Support Waterloo Eats and KW From Home - both awesome resources for local businesses and how to order from them.

Let us know other businesses that we can list!

Things to do (at home).

Artshine has a live art tutorial today at 10 am. You can watch live here or watch it later with the same link.

Georgette Packaging is selling an awesome "Notes from Quarantine" notebook to capture your memories of this time we all want to forget. Portion of sale goes to support front line workers.

Clean the attic. (Let's not get crazy here. It hasn't gotten that bad yet. -Ed.)
