“I had SUCH a wonderful experience at Fairytale Brides! Missy was absolutely amazing-- she really listened to what I was looking for and helped me find the PERFECT dress! She was so knowledgable, helpful, and patient and really gave her honest opinion. This is a great place to shop for a wedding dress and it is so much more meaningful knowing that it is run by volunteers and proceeds are donated to charity!”

“My puppy and I are in our third class at YDF. The space is well-appointed, there are multiple different classes to choose from, and the price is accessible and competitive. More importantly, however, the trainers are incredibly thoughtful and kind. They understand that they are ultimately training owners, not dogs, and they help break things down for the densest of us :) I have specifically taken classes with Sarah Stoycos and Morgan Stroup, and they are wonderful. They are so patient with all my questions, and I feel like my understanding of dog psychology has truly improved.But one of the behind-the-scenes gems of YDF is the coordinator, Nicole. She is incredibly organized and goes above and beyond to help owners access the resources I need. The other day she called me after hours just to talk through a struggle I was having and offer practical suggestions towards resources that might help. So grateful for Nicole and the YDF volunteers!”

“The staff was very knowledgeable about all of the animals. They were very friendly and good at matching animals to potential parents. Lots of great animals that need homes. Come check it out!”

“I love it here. I look forward to coming here once a month when I can get out. I am a senior. I have found treasures here. I have been coming here on and off for about 7 years. I was surprised I found out about such a place.”

“If you have old computers and printers. This is a fantastic organization to donate it. During my poor college years this place save me by providing me equipment to have a chance at succeeding. Many thanks.”

“I thought I was adequately meditating, but the TM method is so completely profound, it took me to a much deeper level. A Harvard study that I read said that the long term benefits of regular meditation, well, read the study.”

“Mid sized thrift store— clothing items are tagged with different colours for sizing and sorted by size. The little plastic tag barbs have different colours, which may or may not be associated with discounts. Each type of clothing is supposed to be one price- dresses are all $11.99, sleeveless tops $4.99. Fitting rooms are available but close 1-1.5 hours before the store closes. There is a kind of chaotic energy to this store (see books pic), along with some organizational quirks— eg the end caps on the housewares aisles were curated by colour.”

“Rabbi Shlomo is the best!If you are not familiar with the Chabad organization - you don't know what you miss... to start with they have a Sabbath service every weekend and on Jewish holiday's - the have an Hebrew school on Sunday's as well.The rabbi and is wife are great people”
