November 2025 Notes from the Shopkeeper: Holiday Shopping at the CVR Store
This is a very busy time for the staff at the CVR Store. It starts a fun and exciting season for our team. Not only do we have all the holidays in December but right on the heels of that, we celebrate the CVR Store’s favorite holiday (Valentine’s Day). After all, […]
