"“When we got the first round of PPP we reopened in a limited capacity: patio only, no inside access. At night we were doing bar service. And at the end of fall, beginning of winter, we installed a covered patio in the alley on the other side of the Bobwhite Theatre. That has made it a lot easier, but still definitely did not pay for itself. Luckily we got a grant for that at the end of the year. We’ve been really living off of grants, to be honest.”—Melinda Archuleta, owner, Bar Carlo" - Molly J. Smith
