Flood impact at Meander
As many of you know, the recent flooding in Pagosa Springs has hit our community hard, and Meander has not been spared. The flood damaged the water and electrical utilities that serve our restaurant, and weβve had to close our doors until theyβre restored. Our best estimate is that weβll remain closed for one to three weeks, depending on how quickly repairs are completed.
The impact has been significant. Weβve lost sales revenue that we expect to continue losing until we can reopen. Our team members, the people who make every visit to Meander special, are losing wages they count on. We also lost the ingredients weβd thoughtfully sourced from local farms and organic producers and carefully prepared for your plates, which was hard for all of us who care so deeply about that work.
If youβre in a position to help, there are two ways to support us right now:
Purchase an eGift Card
Buying an eGift card gives us income now, when we need it most, and gives you (or someone you love) a meal to enjoy once we reopen. Gift cards make wonderful gifts, and you can always buy one for your future self.
Make a Direct Donation to the Meander Team
100% of every donation will be divided evenly among our Meander team members to help make up for their lost wages during this closure.
We know many of our neighbors are facing their own challenges right now, and we never want anyone to feel obligated. If youβre not able to give, please know that your kind words, your patience, and your eventual return to our tables mean the world to us. Sharing this message with others who love Meander helps too.
Weβll keep you updated as utilities are restored and we have a reopening date. Until then, please take care of yourselves and each other.
With deep gratitude,
The Meander Team
