It is a good thing when you are prepped and ready for what comes next.

A menu planned for the holiday weekend. Stocked up on all the key ingredients. Plenty of time to add to the stores when you realize you have a few more things needed.

Back stock ready for the last minute guests in your restaurant. Throw it on the grill and cook it up, ready in just minutes.

The porch, yard and garden is in good shape, too. A lot done in just a few days with dedication to the plan, all maintenance repairs done.

The advance team has it all – prepped and ready – now we can enjoy the holiday. Bring on the guests of honor and let’s get to it.
