Stomping Grounds Coffee House

My vision of this company is to have a hangout, a place where you go, a place where you feel welcome, a place where you love the coffee, a place where you love the food. We are in a town that is in the middle of the desert and one of the unique things about our demographic and our location is that it varies. We have a transient population of very young Marines. That is the biggest category, 18 to 24 year old Marines that are here to train and here to learn and here to protect us, protect this country. I love the Marine Corps. I've worked for USMC and DOD for 12 years. My grandfather was a Marine. That's how I landed in this location and we never left. My immediate family has never left. My entire family is here. What I want to create for these young Marines, because I've worked for them so long, I understand who they are and what they do. I get to watch it and they don't have any options in our demographic and our location. They can go to a bar, they can go to a casino, they can get a haircut and that's about it. I mean, we are so far from everything. We're an hour from anything even remotely fun. This is it guys. This is my dream. This is what I'm here for. This is what I'm asking for your help with. Stomping Grounds Coffee House. Racete's. Racete's restaurant. TK Racete. Tom Racete will be the chef. 15 minutes that way is Joshua Tree itself folks, for all Come on out and eat and get some coffee. You don't have to go to the Joshua Tree National Park. Through that entrance, less than one mile. This way is Utah Trail. The back entrance, there's no line guys. Get your coffee here. Get your food here. Less than two minutes away you can drive up into the National Park and nobody knows about it. Come on in. So here we go. I can show you the coffee machine because I haven't done that yet. I'm really looking forward to opening this place up and I cannot come out of options. I cannot do it without you. So this will be the kitty corner. We're going to have bar stools here. And there's chairs everywhere. Where mom and dad can sit or mom can sit. Got a kitty corner here for the kids to play in. We're going to put some iPads over here with learning games. And while mom's having her coffee, she can get a break from the toddler for ten minutes or so. And my wife will be here. My wife's going to be keeping an eye on the kids. My sister will be here. She'll be keeping an eye on your kids. So you don't have to sweat that while you get a break from that little guy for a minute. That's my wife's favorite spot. I thought whatever at first, but I really love it now. You're going to be able to play up to, I think it's four, but I haven't bought enough controllers yet. I think it's four at a time to play one console. I guess it really depends on the game. I'm going to buy up to eight. And if I don't use them, we'll just have extras. But if we can get eight guys playing one console, that would be fantastic. And right now, this is Rossini's Restaurant Kitchen. This will be the main focus. And it's going to soak up a good portion of the time and funds. Right here, we have our custom-made hood. This is about seven grand. And we owe a big thanks tom, obviously Tom Rossini, and Xavier Candelaria for putting this in for us. Thank you very much. Honestly, all of the big stuff and all of the hard work, the pl We have a lot of little work to do. All right, so this is the Rossini's Bar Area in the Rossini's Restaurant. I don't have any investors. We are not a rich family. I don't have anyone to go to. Yeah, you help me out with this. You save my family. You save Tom's family. You open a business that gives a home to the young Marines who need one upcoming on Thanksgiving. Christmas, this new year, you give them a place to go. Where they're not out getting in trouble, putting themselves at risk. I can't do it without you. I'm out of options, guys.
