The Big Coloring Book of Harold’s

Preface

Thank you for picking up the fourth book in our Coloring Books for a Cause series! Laura Hauser and I started making coloring books to entertain people of all ages while Sheltering in Place to help reduce the devastating effects of COVID-19. We appreciate everyone’s efforts to help Flatten the Curve in this wildly uncertain time. As a touring musician, I felt the financial effects immediately when we needed abruptly to pack up, postpone, and head home from our Heart Bones tour on March 13, 2020. It’s been a scary time for everyone who works in the service industry and beyond because no one knows how long we’ll need to wait patiently to get back to work and a “normal” routine.

As a part-owner of Harold’s on Main, I am thrilled to be able to make a book especially to benefit our Staff Fund that will help our amazing team of bartenders, door people, and everyone else who puts a smile on your face with a Hamm’s, a Heggie’s, and/or a delicious Harold’s cocktail. Our whole team of owners — Eric, Frank, Rob, Aaron, Tom, Preston, and I — are represented throughout these pages to say hello and express our love and gratitude to you, our customers, and supporters. We can’t wait to open our doors to you as soon as we can. Our mission is to keep our little corner of Moorhead, Minnesota, alive and thriving as a community meeting place for many years to come.

I can’t thank Amy Jo, Dale, and Lon enough for dreaming up these pages for us and for making them a beautiful reality. Again, we thank you for your support and wish you all happiness and health as we stick together from a distance to get the world back on track.
