Business hopes to bring community together

The month of February is Community Appreciation Month at Taco Johns in Thermopolis.

During February, you can buy a meal for any type of community member and they will receive their meal for free.

For example, you chose to buy a meal for an EMT, the very next EMT to visit the Thermopolis location will receive their meal free of charge compliments of the buyer.

Owner, Karen Leyba, said she is hoping the offer is a way to bring the community together.

The buyer can pick from any type of job, including, but not limited to, teacher, county employee, town employee, hospital board member, stay at home mom, etc. She even encouraged supporters of specific businesses to come in and buy a meal for the next employee from a specific business.

A board will be on display at Taco Johns listing the current paid for meals.
