Dear Customers,
In a few short days, we will usher in the “merry, merry, month of May”! May is the fifth month and its literally chock full of events from beginning to end. Among these annual enjoyments are the prom, graduation, Mother’s Day, Memorial Day and the arrival of leaves on our maple and oak trees.
Sitting on my back patio, I can hear the intermittent roars from McCoy Stadium as high school baseball games are contested. The state-of-the-art public address system up at the high school press box makes it similarly easy to determine when its “last call for the long jump!”. The incessant drone of lawn mowers surrounds me as my neighbors begin the long after-Winter cleanup.
A circuit of Hamlin Lake reveals a host of joggers, a smattering of walkers (some with strollers) and the excited clamor of crowds at Chet Burt Little League and Glenn Mencer Softball fields. On occasion, you might even catch a high school contest at McCoy stadium! Fishermen, too, are in abundance, scattered haphazardly along the shores of Hamlin Lake and on both sides of the creek below the spillway. In short, the residents of Smethport are out, about and enjoying the great outdoors after being cooped up for the better part of five months!
With more time spent out-of-doors now and the family involved in after-school practices, meets and games of all types, it’s often difficult if not impossible to enjoy a family dinner. Might I suggest a phone call to Costa’s Deli?
Dialing 814-887-9371 will put you in touch with our friendly, eager-to-help deli staff, where you can order the most delicious chicken wings, chicken tidbits, fresh dough pizza, made-to-order subs, Krispy-Fried chicken and numerous entrees from our hot case! Or you can avail yourself of the pre-made sandwiches and Grab’-n-Go entrees in our refrigerated deli case.
Whatever you choose, you can be confident that it will be delicious as well as wholesome – a great substitute until you can find the time to put a homemade dinner on the family table – and if I recall, that would be sometime around Sunday most generally if your life is like mine was when I had school age athletes!
