Our hearts are with the Bend community as we navigate this heartbreaking time. We’re holding the students, families, educators, and everyone affected close in our thoughts.
In moments like these, we’re reminded of the strength, compassion, and love that make this community so special. Bend is showing up for one another, leaning on one another, and coming together when it matters most. There is so much love in this community, and we’re grateful to be a small part of it.
One of the things we’ve always believed in at McMenamins is the importance of neighborhood gathering places. To have spaces where people can connect, find comfort, and feel less alone. Now, more than ever, we’re reminded of how much that sense of community matters.
We’re grateful to be part of a community that shows up for one another, especially in the hardest moments.
Bend, we’re holding you close in our thoughts. ❤️
