Welcome to the Cameron County Book Club!
Welcome to the Cameron County Book Club!
We will meet *once a month* and discuss the month’s book- Skip months as you need to, whether you aren’t into the book or have a lot going on, but all are welcome.
If you missed our first get together, don’t worry, we’re doing it again- The book swap was so fun!
For book club, we will pick a book at the end of the previous month and get together toward the end of the following month- usually Sunday afternoons- to discuss and visit! (I’ve never been in a book club before, so I’m open to suggestions!) p.s. invite your friends!
Thank you Brandi Graham Magaro for hosting us at Rich Valley Rich Valley Wines!
We will continue to meet there in the future, as long as the space is available!
Now-to pick January’s book…

Costanzo's Offroad Business Update
Costanzo's Offroad
Hey everyone, little late to the post here.
Louis had his follow up appointment for his collar bone. The bone is healing but not as much as he or the Dr. would like. It is still fractured, and he has to go back in another 3 weeks.
A lot of you may know already, Louis is opening a second location out of his garage at home.
We will only be doing work at the main location on Main Street by the tracks by appointment only.
We will have the same phone number and still be able to order any parts needed for your machines. We will also be transferring our inspection station to the new place so we can take care of your yearly inspections.
This was a tough decision to make but Louis and Emily’s son is growing up fast and Louis wants to have as much time with him that he can so he will be watching Jett during the day and taking care of tech work in the evenings.
We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding through the last two months while Louis has been recovering. We also can’t thank our customers enough for the support over the last 5 years to help build this business to what it is now. Louis is looking forward to the future and being able to supply the area with grade A service for all your small engine and power-sports machines.
Thank you!
