(COVID-19) Coronavirus Update – May 20, 2020
At Laughing Stock Vineyards, the health and safety of our customers, guests, and employees is foremost in our minds. As such, in the wake of the latest COVID-19 updates, we wanted to let you know how we are keeping you and your safety top of mind.
• To maintain social distancing, we have cancelled all daily wine tastings, tours and events; we are anticipating reopen of the tasting room in June sometime depending on updates from the Public Health Agency of BC.
•We find ourselves reflecting on how fortunate we are to have such amazing customers and guests that treat us liked trusted colleagues or even family, and to that end we want to return the sentiment. For the months of April & May, we will be donating 10% of our online sales to the Vancouver Food & Beverage Community Relief Fund as so many of the impacted restaurants and staff that have helped Laughing Stock Vineyards grow and thrive over the years are facing such difficult times.
•For a limited time, kindly enjoy free shipping on all orders of 6 or more bottles. Use Promocode FREESHIP
• We will be open for curbside pick up. To place your wine order for curbside pick up, please shop online at www.laughingstock.ca and mark in the notes your preferred pick up date and time and we will contact you to confirm.
•Best way to reach us currently is via email info@laughingstock.ca.
• We’ve increased the frequency of regularly scheduled cleanings and sanitization efforts. We regularly clean and sanitize the common areas – door handles, fridge door handles, automatic door operator plates, pin pads, countertops...basically anything your hands generally touch. Our staff regularly clean their workspaces including the register keyboard and are encouraged to wash or sanitize their hands on a frequent basis.
• The health and well-being of our guests and employees is our priority. As such, we are communicating regularly with our employees to ensure they have the information and support they need to stay healthy during these unusual circumstances. Employees who do not feel well have been instructed to stay at home.
Thank you for being a loyal customer. Since this is an evolving situation, we will continue to provide information as it becomes available.
Please feel free to contact us directly at info@laughingstock.ca if you have any questions or concerns.
Take care of yourself and each other,
Holly Brockmeyer
