<div>Bonz Beach Farms is organizing this fundraiser for the owners of <strong>211 Bar &amp; Grill</strong>, the Pasellas, and the employees who make The 211 such a special part of the Black Lake area.

</div>
<div><strong>Overnight on October 6th and 7th, a fire tore through and burned the entire restaurant</strong>. The building is a total loss, and the business will be completely halted. For a place that has meant so much to neighbors and visitors alike, this loss is deeply felt close to home. The owners live less than a football field away, and the restaurant itself is only about a quarter mile west.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>These funds will help fill the gap for owners and employees alike — there are many hearts and souls who are affected by this — to support the very people who serve our own community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>&gt;&gt; <a href="https://bonzbeachfarms.com/pages/about" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bonz Beach Farms</a> will match the first $5,000 in donations. </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Donations will go toward expenses and bills that arrive before insurance coverage kicks in, helping ease the immediate pressure during this sudden and devastating interruption. The exact expenses are not yet known, and this fundraiser page will be used to share ongoing updates as more details become clear.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The Black Lake area shines because of people like Jeremy &amp; Becky Pasella, their employees, and all the effort they put into creating a truly wonderful experience at The 211</strong>. Everyone knows how great The 211 is, from the Fried Cod &amp; the garlic bulb appetizer to the Salad Bar, Mikey's BBQ Ribs, and Becky's delicious homemade soups.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And we all know of <strong>Christine</strong>'s UNMATCHED service! <strong>Mikey</strong> is constantly guaranteeing guests are having a wonderful time &amp; his smoked BBQ ribs can't be beat (and neither can <strong>Angie</strong>'s meatloaf!)... <strong>JT</strong> is one of the most polite people you will EVER meet — and the same goes for both of the <strong>Maddie</strong>'s! There are many, many more names that make the 211 Bar &amp; Grill so great — from the bussers to the cooks to the bartenders to the servers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As neighbors, Bonz Beach Farms believes it would be <strong>unacceptable</strong> to sit by and wait for insurance decisions while this family business and its workers face such a difficult moment. <strong>How we as neighbors respond to times like these is why Small Town USA is as great as it is</strong>. Because while we may get knocked down - we will not be kept down. Even the forests come back stronger and more vibrant than ever after the most devastating wildfires.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The same will be true for the people of The 211 Bar &amp; Grill</strong>.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you are able, please consider donating or sharing this fundraiser. Community support can make a real difference right now, and with people rallying around them, The 211 can come back stronger.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>**GoFundMe has set this Fundraiser Goal at $15K, but we are going to keep going until we are absolutely certain ALL needs are met in the meantime! Thank you for taking the time to read all of this, and God bless you!
