We spent most of Sunday and Monday this week re-working our gift shop.  We painted some display pieces, replaced some shelving, and rearranged the pastry case and checkout area.  When we finished, we were very pleased with ourselves.  And then we got to wondering...

What are our guests looking for from us, that we don't offer?

And so, we're conducting a survey.  We'd love it if you'd take a few minutes to take the survey (link below) and let us know how we can serve you better.
