Pardon Our Dust

Well we have finally used all the space we possibly can in our Lakemoor, IL location. With 1200 sf to work with, we have found ourselves tripping over, squeezing in, stacking, and losing things everyday. To better serve our customers and to keep our own sanity, we have decided to build a loft in the back half of the shop.

This loft will bring us about 800 sf of pure storage. The plan is to have shelving in rows with just enough space for a person to walk between them. The front of the loft with also have a chain fall so we can hoist motors out of boats (something that we can not do all the time at the moment). I thank all of our customers for allowing us to make these renovations because if it was not for you we would have no need for the new 800 sf storage.

Thanks

Stop in for a BK Lunch

LUNCH TIME!

April (co-owner Mike's wife) has been pounding the pavement each day from about noon to one selling lunch. Many people (like ourselves) do not have time to leave the complex for lunch. Even if you did we have 2 options a $9 hotdog from the corner place, or a $6 value meal from McDonalds.

So April had the idea to service the complex with the BK Cart & Grill. For the BK meal you get:
Dog, Chips, Pop - add all the toppings you want for no fee. Still hungry? Add an additional dog for a buck!

Hows that for a deal, and better yet... WE came to YOU!

Stop in to say hi, and grab a bite!

Fox Lake 4th of July Parade





This was our 3rd year in the Fox Lake 4th of July Parade. This might have been the best yet. We introduced our goofy mascot, Cpt. Strip'n'Ship. We had a nice turn out for walkers in the parade too. I think we really made an impression! A lot of cards went out and a lot of High Fives were thrown. I love doing the parades because you can have a great time and spread the word about BK.
