We’ve been flooded with so much love about The Soda Parlor. First off thank you! We had been open for 6years! Wow! We poured so much of ourselves into that place, I’ve meet thousands of you in that shop. And then bam! A tornado tears through your town. It doesn’t really even feel real.



Let me say this we had insurance. We’re meeting up with said insurance agent today.

I don’t know how long of a road we have ahead of us. I don’t know the obstacles we have a head of us. I don’t know when we will get these insurance funds. I don’t know the extent of the damage.

Sadly ONTOP of all of that are place was looted. Which means nothing to me. All of that can be replaced.



My mind goes to oh crap we have a bunch of employees that don’t have a job right now.

I’ve seen many of you asking, begging to help. I’m going to set up a gofundme I don’t have a number in my head as of yet and it’s totally up to you don’t feel the need to do this. This is where it would go.

Give our employees some bridge money to find a new job. Removal, storage of everything in the shop. Whatever that wasn’t looted. We would throw some to a charity to help some people who were effected by this. And whatever left over if there is any we would throw at the beginnings of a Soda Parlor 2.0. I’m pretty positive insurance will cover this.

There is a very lengthy road ahead of us and some many people in Nashville. We got this. I look forward to the day I lift a float with all again.Thanks so much!
