Local business owner, Debbie Sardone, of Buckets & Bows Maid Service and Fish City Grill, in Flower Mound, team up Tuesday, January 5th, 2010, to raise awareness and funds for Cleaning For A Reason , the nation’s only non-profit that provides free, professional cleaning services to women undergoing cancer treatment. |
|
Fifteen percent of the local restaurant’s entire sales on January 5th will benefit Cleaning For A Reason. Seven years ago, Fish City Grill launched its ‘First Tuesday Benefit,’ the company’s way of supporting the causes important to the communities surrounding its individual locations on a monthly basis. |
|
Buckets & Bows Maid Service, which has been providing professional maid service in the Flower Mound and Highland Village areas for nearly 30 years, is the Founding Member of Cleaning For A Reason. “Our practice of providing free, professional cleanings for local women undergoing cancer treatment has been taken nationwide by the Foundation since 2006 but the number of women who need help all across the country is shocking,” said Buckets & Bows Maid Service Owner, Debbie Sardone. “Put the 5th on your calendar and bring your friends, your office, and your family to Fish City Grill. It’s that easy to make a difference in someone’s life!” |
|
Aaron Fecher, General Manager, Fish City Grill Flower Mound said, “Cleaning For A Reason is a great cause. It’s the ‘Post-It Note’ of non-profits for women: the ultimately simple concept with universal appeal. It’ll be our pleasure to keep the place hopping for them from 11 AM to 10 PM, to support Cleaning For A Reason!” |
| No tickets, no reservations, just join the fun and fundraising at Fish City Grill, 2628 Long Prairie Road in Flower Mound. This is south of Cross Timbers Road. 972.899.1630 or visit their website for directions www.FishCityGrill.com |

Custom Banners – One of the advantages of banners is that they can re-create anything from a simple logo to a detailed photo, at a very cost effective price. At True Signs they use only the highest quality 14 & 16 ounce banner materials. This is the ideal product for temporary use and/or a lasting solution for both outdoor & indoor signage.

Store Window Lettering is not only cost effective, but also one of the easiest ways to advertise your business. Displaying your store hours, phone number and even a promotion will allow you to take advantage of any potential customers passing by. |
| Storefront Signs are the first impression your potential customers have of your business. True Signs can help you design a sign that will convey your company’s image and style, while working within your budget. |  |
 |
 |
 |
Vehicle Graphics are another very cost effective way to boost your company’s awareness and visibility all around town. True Signs uses only 7-10 year exterior life vinyl for lettering, which provides the durability needed for riveted, corrugated or seamed surfaces. Don’t need anything that permanent? They also do auto magnets for temporary signs on vehicles. |
| FlowerMoundFamily.com publisher, Jill Noble has this to say about True Signs: “Mark True at True Signs helped us with our banner and auto magnets for the Flower Mound Christmas Parade. I had visited a couple of other sign companies before theirs, and was pleasantly surprised at how helpful (and patient) they were at True Signs. Our banner and magnets are beautiful. True Signs will definitely be our first stop the next time!” |
