 Welcome to the Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for Sky Bistro Lounge. My name is Cassandra Fletcher. I'm with the City of Columbia Office of Business Opportunities. And I'm excited and honored to be here today for the Grand Opening for Sky Bistro Lounge. Carla and I did have an opportunity to attend the soft opening on last Friday. And I must say, the atmosphere, the customer service was phenomenal. And also, as well as far as the food, it was delicious. So you all definitely need to come out and support and make sure you taste the delicious food as well. Definitely today. Also as well, I am really excited that Dennis and Cynthia Harris decided to open their business in the city. And congratulations. And again, I am excited about you all coming across the street from the City of Columbia because we'll be coming over here to visit quite often. And we are looking forward to your great success in our great city. Thank you. And I'll be turning it over to our district to Council Member Reverend McDowell. Good evening. America could not be with us today. He's out of town. But of course, anytime a new business opens in our city, it simply signifies that the city is continuing to grow and prosper. Now, I'm going to be tasting some of that food. Brother Dennis, Sister Cynthia, I'm going to be tasting some of that food regularly because you're in my district. And I want to make sure that our district, I've already been introduced to some of the cuisine that are here. And of course, to bring new businesses in is not a luxury, but something that is and has been a part of our objectives as a city council. Thank you, Brother Dennis, Sister Cynthia. Thank you for your insight. Thank you for your creativity. And thank you for allowing us to be a part of this experience today. Let's go. I've attended many other ribbon-cutting ceremonies. Some have been for other things. Today is delightful because it involves food. And anytime you are across the street from 401 Main with all of the traffic that will come through here during lunch hours, we would hope that you will prosper and continue to prosper. Please remember, small businesses are economic generators, revenue generators for our city. So thank you guys so much. Thank you for being who you are and who you are. And thank you for allowing us. I did not attend the soft opening, but I will attend when I go inside. So thank you all very, very much. Now I'm going to invite Brother Dennis Harris and his lovely wife to come and say a word. Would you please? Good evening. I'm glad you all can show up for this special event. And we're looking forward to seeing you all regularly to have some good food. The only thing I want to say, thanks for coming. We're excited to be here. And hopefully we'll be here for the long stay. And thanks again for coming. Thank you. How y'all doing? I'm Dennis Harris, Jr. This is my father and this is my mother. I just wanted to say a little something before our grand opening. Just wanted to say nothing in life that's worth having comes easy. And we did a lot of sacrifice, hard work, discipline, faith. And dedication to get this business up and running. We know it's going to, it's going to, it's built to last. I'm proud to acknowledge on behalf of my father, Dennis Harris, and my mother, Cynthia Harris, who are US retired veterans and now business owners in the Main Street District that this process has been long and tedious, but worth the wait and anticipation. The Harris family and the Sky Team, who are extended family as well, has persevered and worked diligently to get to this point of a grand opening. I personally would like to thank the University of South Carolina and the Dollarmore School of Business for providing the foundation for execution of this entrepreneurial endeavor. We here at Skybeashore Lounge are excited to have city council, Mr. McDowell, Mr. Matt Kennell, Ms. Cassandra Fletcher, and many others here to support and welcome us today. Also, Ms. Carla Ackerberg. We here at Skybeashore here to provide excellent food, exceptional customer service, a vibrant live music, and satisfy each individual that visits and supports us. A member experience at Skybeashore Lounge, we welcome everybody here to come network, relax, enjoy plenty of great food and plenty of football in the present. We hope to motivate and inspire everyone to reach, believe, and achieve as far as the sky and beyond. The motto and the message is the sky is not the limit. My name is Dennis Harris, and I truly hope you enjoy this establishment for years to come. You're going after it!
