Business networking and networking only work when trust comes first—and Dr. Shpendi Lluhani has built both. In this episode of Connections That Matter, Shpendi shares how he and his wife run Reconnect Chiropractic in Loveland with a family-first approach (including pediatric and prenatal care), why referrals have become their #1 growth driver, and how community-centered networking (like Hustle Hour) creates real relationships—not just transactions.

You know, there's a lot of women-only networking groups, and I think guys just need a space to kind of have a little place to relax, but also be around like-minded people who sort of understand some of the pressures that you might not be able to talk about as a guy just because we put these um doors on ourselves, these walls up of like we can't show people the stress we're going through or whatever.
SPEAKER_02What's up, everybody? Welcome to another episode of Connections That Matter. Uh today I have a super special guest, somebody that has connect connect in the name of their business. Uh Dr. Spindy, welcome. Good to see you.
SPEAKER_01Thank you. Thank you for having me. I appreciate it.
SPEAKER_02Awesome. Well, I brought uh Spindy on the show because I met you at a hustle hour. You um greeted me, but you are, in it, in addition to being a great chiropractor, um you're also a great networker. So uh do what I can. Do what you can try a little bit. Well, for those who haven't uh been uh in your office or have met you at an event, uh tell us a little bit about what you do.
SPEAKER_01So uh my wife and I own Reconnect Chiropractic in uh Loveland. We are a family chiropractic office. That just means that we have a bit of a broad spectrum. We also specialize in pediatric and prenatal care. So see lots of babies, lots of pregnant women, but we like to take care of the whole family essentially, from you know, birth all the way to the other end. Aaron Ross Powell Like uh like in the hospital like delivery room? Uh my wife has gone to multiple deliveries, not in the hospital, uh but home births and uh birthing centers and things like that. We can help during that process as well. Usually we'll take care of everybody in the office before they're actually at that process. But there are certain things that we can do with our techniques to try and aid if there's some stalling or single things like that. Aaron Powell How uh how did you specialize uh like pediatric or add that where Oh man. Um so I went to school thinking I was gonna be a sports chiropractor. Like most guys, I think. I was gonna go get my degree, go work for the Patriots, take care of Tom Brady. Uh once I got there, I learned a lot about chiropractic and kind of a different side of it and how you can really help the nervous system and help kids with it. Um I figured, you know, athletes have enough being taken care of. So uh truly, really have a joy for working with kids because you can kind of it's easier to keep people healthy than trying to fix them. So if you can start them on the right path early on, you give them the best opportunity in life.
SPEAKER_02So when you mentioned uh New England and stuff, but your route to northern Colorado is a very interesting one. Yes. Um for those who maybe don't know your background, share a little bit about your origin story, how you got here.
SPEAKER_01Uh, long story, I'm gonna try and make it short. So I was born in Kosovo, small and little country in Eastern Europe. Uh, grew up there until I was about 13. Um, there were some conflicts of war and things there. So ended up in the U.S. Um as a refugee, grew up mostly in Connecticut from there, went to Dallas to go to chiropractic school, met my beautiful wife. Um, she wanted to move to Colorado. I wanted to marry her, and we ended up in Colorado.
SPEAKER_02That that you did make that really a short story. I'm just imagining like the refugee. I mean, what was it? What was it like back home and then making the decision to be like, hey, we need to get out of here and out of all the places, why the U.S.?
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So um the US is always a big country, obviously. Sure. You know, everybody wants the American dream. So when we were growing up in Kosovo, we had a good life. But 98-99, there was a big war there, um essentially a genocide. And my family, we were lucky enough to survive, not everyone, but you know, we survived. Uh, and then after the war, just there's a lot of loss, a lot of um trauma, things like that. So my parents were essentially looking to give us a new opportunity. Um, and we ended up coming to the US as refugees. It's a bit of a long process on how you can get there. There's um certain lotteries you have to enter, and it's kind of a long process for you to be able to come through. It's not just walking through the front door. But um, after that process, my parents put a lot of work in, and once we made it to the US, we ended up in Connecticut. Um, and then essentially it's a new stage of life after that, you know, of how you can kind of um start creating your American dream, and thank my parents for that all the time because they have to start fresh, you know. Imagine with nothing. Yeah. It's pretty much it. I think we had backpacks of uh clothes when we moved out here. So um, you know, you have to learn the new language, you have to start from scratch on the new business and everything else like that. But um did they have any English when they my mom spoke English. Um she was kind of the only one that understood a lot of the English. Did you speak English? Like, no, we start taking English in school over there at a very early age. Okay, like it used to be in fifth grade, so I understood some English because I was in sixth, seventh grade when I moved here, but not speaking English, no. But you learn once you're immersed in it, uh, you learn quite a bit around. I also tell everybody that I learned a lot from Bob Barker. Used to watch the prices ride a lot when we moved here.
SPEAKER_02Well, if you're in the New England area, I don't hear the park the ka and all that stuff.
SPEAKER_01You know, I I didn't think I had an accent. I moved to Dallas, people were like, hey, you have a New England accent. Like, really? I didn't know that was a thing. But um, yeah, no, I don't I think I'm pretty standard on my accent. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. Albanian accent where I'm from in Kosovo, we speak Albanian. It's not a very sexy accent. So we uh I'm glad I don't have that accent either.
SPEAKER_02Sure. So you when you were coming over, you're what, sixth, seventh grade? So old enough to remember, I would imagine. It's not like you have vague memories when you're a little kid or uh No, I uh we remember all of it.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. At that age, you know, once you're going through everything, you kinda you remember all of it. Um I think you just at some point you try to create little blockades, I think, to have that in the past memory, but also not forget so that you can try and avoid things like that in the future as well. But yeah, no, I remember most of it.
SPEAKER_02But that getting there with a backpack, uh, or you know, you got your family or some of your family you said that um, you know, they they didn't all come come through, but you gotta you're you gotta create a life. You gotta, you know, get established a new shot at it.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_02Um what was like that initials the initial part of like digging in, getting established, getting some traction. What what does that even look like?
SPEAKER_01So um once we moved here, like I said, we ended up in Connecticut. A lot of organizations, a lot of people are willing to help when they kind of know what you've been through, I think. Um so we did, we were lucky we got quite a bit of help from local community there. Um my parents both kind of immediately jumped into trying to figure out obviously how to create a new life, create new work. Um, so my dad, we growing up in Kosovo, he had a big tire business with my uncle. Um obviously moving here, you have to learn the language, you have to kind of wait through your process of going through the paperwork and things like that. So um I feel like his first job here was actually washing dishes, which for a man that's had a business for 20 something, 30 years, however long it was, he started fresh. But he's a very resourceful man. I've gotten my work ethic from him and I thank him for that. Uh but he, you know, billed from one thing to another to another, and now him and my brother have a pretty big tire business in Connecticut together. Um, so kind of re-established what he had again. Um as a kid, you know, my job was to make sure that I don't mess up those opportunities that they're trying to give us. So get to school, do good in school, um, do all that kind of stuff to try and get acclimated.
SPEAKER_02So Well, I just hear like the reverence for your family, and uh your mom spoke a little English, dad goes and has uh doesn't mind washing dishes to get really established. But um if you had to boil down maybe like one piece of advice so your parents gave to you that has led to your success, that would be something you could share with other Northern Colorado business owners, what would what would you what would you say?
SPEAKER_01I would say adapt and don't be too proud to do what you need to do to get to where you want to get.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, I like that. That's good. Where so where where do you want to go now? Like you're you're in Loveland, you gotta you're doing hustle hours.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, well, hustle hours have been a fun thing. Um that's a guys networking group. You've been to that before. That's a fun group, you know. We get to hang out with some guys. Yeah, plug it. When and where do you meet connections? Uh we meet usually once a month at we've been meeting at 477 Distillery in Loveland. They're a great place. They let us host there. Um, we used to jump around a few different places, but that's been a solid place. You know, they got good drinks, good people, good service, good community center spot. Yeah. So it's been great. Um other than that, you know, always dreams of growing the business and growing to other businesses, I think. My wife and I have uh aspirations to create a health center, essentially. Yeah, so we have our own business. We focus a lot on chiropractic and neurologic chiropractic, more overall health rather than just aches and pains. Um, but our goal is uh to essentially get other providers that do similar overall health things, more natural health in kind of a central location and just be sort of the one-stop shop for everybody.
SPEAKER_02Well, and then who you pick for those uh practitioners are key, right? I mean, uh you want to have somebody that if you're in the same health center together, like you're committed, but how would you qualify people? What what are who are you recruiting? Like what's your how do you develop those kind of partnerships with the other people that would come in your health center?
SPEAKER_01Um I'm very much a meet people in person and see how they are and who they are rather than just going off credentials. Right. Um I think uh like right now I have an amazing acupuncturist that's been with me for a while. Um she's awesome.
SPEAKER_02I actually want to give her a shout out, yeah.
SPEAKER_01Chloe. Yeah, her name is Chloe, Chloe Goldberg. Uh she owns Bloom Acupuncture. Um, she has been awesome, but I uh I met her before she was even a chiropractor or uh an acupuncturist. I met her when she was a bartender a long time ago. And I knew she was gonna go to school, and I was like, she's just a good person that cares for people, right? So um when I'm kind of seeing who we want around us in the future as well, it's always that same mentality of like, what's your view on people? For us, what's your view on health and just overall um people and how you want to help? Are you more money-minded and business-minded, which is nothing wrong? But for me, I want somebody that's more of um that's got that character that wants to take care of people and help people.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Um, if we can have, if we can all be on the same page that way, I think everything else will just fall into place. Very cool. Um what's it like working with your wife? Uh you know, uh people always ask that. Uh they've been asking that since we were first out of school, I think. They're like, You're gonna work with your wife? Yeah, actually, we like each other. Um, we have a good time. She um sh we have opposite things that we're good at. Okay. And I am very lucky to have that uh because she's very organized. Uh a lot of behind-the-scenes things that keep a business going. Shout out to her for that. Yeah. Um, I'm very much a uh I've got the idea and let's just go do it. And she is gonna create the steps and figure out how we're gonna do it. Um, so we we do complete different things, and then as far as the actual chiropractic care, she's got different specializations than I do in between both of us. That kind of allows us to be able to take care of everybody and not turn anybody away. Yeah. But you know, all things have their hardships, so you have to just make sure you kind of figure things ahead of time and not argue in business about different things that don't matter. Totally. We we enjoy it, we love it. You know, we've got our little kiddo, he comes by the office all the time. He's our youngest employee at three years old right now. So he has a good time. He's part of the social media team.
SPEAKER_02Sure. But he's like, yeah, right on.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_02Um well, I think that's interesting because I talked to a lot of entrepreneurs that are starting up, and the spouse maybe is not the primary business. It sounds like you guys are co co-owners and stuff like that. But um how do you how do you put on like the the husband hat versus the coworker hat? Or are they different hats at all?
SPEAKER_01Or um That is partly an always evolving thing, sure. I think right. When we went into business, we actually uh toured a lot of different offices that had couples as chiropractors before we were while we were still students, just to see what worked and what didn't. And one of those things always was making sure that you have a separation, right? When we go home, we are parents, we are husband and wife, we have a good time, we try and create a separation, but it is always overlapping because that you know, chiropractic is our life, that's our lifestyle. It's not just the job we're getting up and doing. That is from wake up to bedtime, that's just who we are, right? So it's um it's always an evolving thing of trying to separate certain things and create patterns, but you have to work at it, you know. Yeah, we recently uh beginning of the year actually stopped working on Fridays. I used to go into the w office on Fridays and it was draining a little bit. Sure. So now Fridays essentially are our family day. We go on hikes, we focus on the kiddo, we have good times, things like that. So it's just realizing what's important to you. And for me, it you know, when you're getting in the hustle of working all the time, you can kind of forget sometimes that what you're doing it for, which is them. So kind of realizing to wake up and focus on that first and then the other one.
SPEAKER_02How about I mean, as a dad now, right? Like, so you obviously have a lot of respect for your parents, what they did to get you and here you have the opportunity to pass that along. Um, what do you want your kids to grow up to have or to be or to you know, values that they hold?
SPEAKER_01Um to be a good person. Um just yesterday, my uh three-year-old, which I thought was actually a very good answer for a three-year-old, because I was like, bud, you want to play soccer? My wife says I push them too much for soccer. I'm like, you want to be a chiropractor, you want to be soccer? And he said, I just want to be me, which is pretty, in my opinion, pretty profound for a three-year-old to say, and I was like, that's okay, you be you. But um my goal is just to educate them in being um a good person and then kind of figure out the rest of what you want to do after that. Do you feel pressure as a dad or as a you know that's a I feel like that's an always a yes, right? Right as a as a dad. And we actually have one more coming. Got another another kiddo joining in March. So um there's always pressure, I think, as a dad, but the other opportunity, the other thing is that I've always just wanted to be a dad. That's like my greatest, I think, accomplishment is being a dad. So um there's pressure that you just don't want to let them down, you don't want to mess up. Yeah, but at the same time, all they want is your time, right? Like we put all these extra pressures on us. We gotta give them this and give them that and give them this. All they all they want is our time and playtime. So for sure.
SPEAKER_02And so how do you um I I love all that. Uh and then as a chiropractor, how are you getting clients? Is it referrals? Is it um um what's your what's your balance of how you acquire new clients?
SPEAKER_01So at this point, we've been in practice about five and a half years coming up on six, I think. Um referrals are our main main thing, and that's the greatest compliment you can have, right? Somebody trusts you to send their family members in, especially for what we do. Yeah, that's amazing. Um so referrals are definitely our number one, but to get here, to get where we are, you always need a net in the community, I think, yeah, to be able to tell other people about you as well. So um, you know, getting out and networking and just meeting people is always a great thing. Um, just for people to kind of know who you are and know that you are a trustworthy person for them to refer to you. So networking groups have always been great for me as well, just for essentially growing who we are in the community.
SPEAKER_02Well, it's one thing to join a networking group, but it's another one to host it and lead it and guide it. Um and I don't normally see that from uh the health and wellness industry as much. You know, I see like health and wellness meetups, but um what when did you decide to like start throwing the hustle hours and then making it uh a guys-focused event?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, so um I'm gonna go back just to one thing. So the reason I like to do the different types of things, not just health-focused, is to not necessarily just, I guess, grow myself, it's more so to grow chiropractic. Yeah. Because there's so many people I meet that just have misinformation or are afraid of chiropractors because they've seen something and they don't understand it. So if I can be a small part of just educating a few people on what we do, that's always a good bonus for me. Um, but the hustle hour specifically, you know, we my wife and I do a lot of different networking events and always have since we moved here to just grow and learn. But uh the guys thing was just started originally as a joke and then it just seemed like there was a need for it.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Um and you know, there's a lot of women-only networking groups, and I think guys just need a space to kind of have a little place to relax, but also be around like-minded people who sort of understand some of the pressures that you might not be able to talk about um as a guy, just because we put these um doors on ourselves, these walls up of like we can't show people the stress we're going through or whatever. So in my head, I was like, you know what, it's just the guys once a month happy hour, let's just relax. But at the same time, you can make connections, you can learn who these people are. Because people always want to refer to people they trust and know instead of just transactional kind of thing.
SPEAKER_02So well, and whether people are finding it because they're getting invited by somebody who knows about hustle hour or they're you got a Facebook group where you're advertising. Um one thing I do see that you do though, Shwindy, is um if there's somebody who's never been before, new guest or whatever, you spend a lot of time with them to make sure that they're have a sense of belonging, they're welcomed, um and they have a good event. Um and I and I understand that that's really an intentional thing to do because it's easy just to have a conversation with somebody you already know. But you're you're very focused on like welcoming in all the new people. And um any tips for other people networking of a way to really capture some of the um the goodwill and organizing a great event or creating really overall um a connected community?
SPEAKER_00Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER_01Um I would say I had a few answers as you were asking that question, and now I can't figure out which one to answer right away. Um I think the best thing you can do when you're going to an event, so if you're going and joining an event that's already there, um just be you. Be authentically you. Don't go there trying to be a salesperson, don't go there trying to um, you know, intentionally get leads right away. It's a lot better if you're just showing up, focus on that person in front of you. If you're going from one shake to another, just focus on who that person is, right? Um because they're gonna learn who you are. Everybody's there to network. We're gonna ask what you do, we're gonna ask you know what you need help with. But let's just focus on that connection part at first, right? As simple as a handshake, eye contact, kind of things like that. Um if you're looking to grow a group, that is uh maybe make some friends and have some help a little bit. That's always a good thing. Um in the beginning I was trying to do a lot of like a lot more with this, and it was just getting to be a little bit um too much. I was trying to change locations and hosted different areas and things like that. And as a one-man show there, it was getting to be a little too much for me. Um, I do have friends that always started offering help and things like that, but it was from those discussions that all the guys that normally come to the group and they're like, hey, let's just host it here. We're all having a good time. People know where we are, um, having that consistency. Consistency is kind of key in those scenarios, I think. Yeah. So I don't know if I answered that. That was no, that was perfect. Uh, how did how did you come up with reconnect? Uh reconnect chiropractic um is so taking a different approach to chiropractic rather than just pain-based. There's a lot of neurological-based chiropractic is what essentially we call it. Our focus is always on the brain. Because anytime you make an adjustment, you're affecting certain nerves that send a message to the brain. The brain sends a message back down to the body to start that healing process. So reconnect is actually just us um trying to help reconnect your brain to your body. Right? There's a big disconnect when people get sick. It's not because it's not always necessarily because of a germ or a virus. Because you could have 10 people in a row, expose them to the exact same thing. Maybe you know, why do some get sick and why not? Because certain people's body essentially is functioning at a higher level, but their nervous system is clearer. Your brain can communicate with your body a little bit better, it can heal whatever it has to heal. But when there's a disconnect there, there's a little bit of a pinching of a nerve or whatever, and the brain just can't fully talk to that organ or tissue. There's a disconnect. So our whole process is let's help you reconnect with your body and help you stay healthy.
SPEAKER_02Love that. Love that. And in Loveland, there's um I think people probably more so than nationwide, like are generally accepting a chiropractor. So maybe good job for all evangelizing you. Thank you, thank you. I guess I'll take it. If you go to some of the other places, they might not be as open. But uh with that, there's also probably a lot more chiropractors uh around northern Colorado. Um so what do you do to to stand out from your competition?
SPEAKER_01You know, um when we moved to Loveland, we noticed one with specializing in pediatric and prenatal that was a little bit of a niche. There's a few in Loveland. Um we're friends with all of them. Sure. I think um in chiropractic, the majority of us have the mentality of rising tide. Like, yeah, you know, we all have a different technique, we all have different specialties, we all have different cares that we want out of it. Um, there's about 300 different techniques in chiropractic, so a lot of people do different things. Um so especially in northern Colorado, honestly, we didn't do too much to be like, oh, let's what do we do for this competition or for that competition? Yeah. Um, but our first two months of moving there, chiropractors reached out to us and was like, hey, we're all hosting a party together. Do you want to come out? Nice. So it was good to meet those people. We refer to other chiropractors for certain things that we don't do, other chiropractors refer to us for things that we do. So we kind of take the approach of, hey, you know, we're trying to help as many people as we can. If we're not the right people, let's send you to our friends down the road, they're gonna be able to help you. Because just not enough people get full chiropractic, in my opinion. So uh I don't know, silly to say. But we don't see a huge percentage of the population for as popular as chiropractic has gotten. Sure. So, you know, the more there are, the better.
SPEAKER_02Well, I love that you get referrals and give referrals to what your competition would be. And I think that's a definitely underlooked uh part of networking is building those relationships with people within your industry. Yeah. Um, how do how do you set those up? How do you choose who to refer out to? How do you get to how do you get invited to you know those kind of parties and those kind of things or really integrate into the chiropractic community in Colorado?
SPEAKER_01Um I think honestly, just reaching out to people. Like we um, if somebody has a birthday that I know has a birthday, we'll stop by their office with some something simple to be like, hey, happy birthday, even though they're our competition as people would say. Yeah. Um, it's just keeping those connections. Like we're just did some Christmas pictures in the office. We're getting ready to send out thank you cards and some gift cards to all of our referral partners, just as a thank you. Um we co-work a lot with um being in since we see a lot of pregnancy, we see work a lot with doulas and midwives as well. So it's just uh keeping the connections, keeping the door open, but also just genuinely wanting to thank them for what they do. Sure. So we send thank you cards pretty regularly um for those types of things or gifts, baskets, and things like that. Um, honestly, just I think just staying connected, I guess. And Lovel's not a very big place in a lot of ways.
SPEAKER_02Right.
SPEAKER_01It's a it's a community where you are part of the community and you don't get lost in it, if that makes sense as a business, right? You can open a business if you have a community mentality, you become part of it and integrate it, and the community wants to help you grow, whatever that community looks like.
SPEAKER_03So Yeah.
SPEAKER_02Well, you you'd pre- uh Shwindi, you had previously mentioned uh Chloe, uh your acupuncturist that you connect with. Um is there anybody else that you connect with, you collaborate with, you refer out to that's just really made Reconnect a special place?
SPEAKER_01Um yes. But I would this is one of the hardest questions I have thought about coming into this, actually. Uh just because don't leave anybody out, right? We have such a big community, right? And that's that's what I mean. I was like, you know what, you have this person, we have this, and this, and there's just so many awesome people that have helped us. So um instead of naming one person, I'm gonna go by community. Thank you to all the doulas. Doulas are um uh amazing in our community, they have a great community. My wife co-works a lot with a lot of them and goes to the different networking groups and things like that. But um, for us, the way we see that is they are working with pregnant women, but they're teaching them a little bit about what chiropractic is, whether that's our office or other offices around town, they teach them what it is, which from my standpoint, we can help a woman avoid a C-section, we can help a woman have a healthy baby, reduce labor time. Um, so thank you to all the doulas that give us uh the opportunity to be able part of the team and help out. But other than that, you know, you've been to the hustle hour groups, like those guys are just amazing, you know, from a different perspective, not just the pregnancy. Um, they refer in all the time, even if they've never been themselves, because they understand that I guess they they understand my character and they understand they know that I'm I'm maybe a trustworthy person. So they're like, hey, go see this person versus just somebody you might not know.
SPEAKER_02Well, I just uh ran into John Peshin. Uh John, John, I love John. He's uh he's probably like your biggest hype man or number one fan of the Hustler.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, he really is, he really is. And you know, he's he's always tagging me on Facebook when people are like looking for somebody trustworthy. He's always the first one from Port Collins to anywhere in northern Colorado. And there's other guys that do the same thing, uh, which I appreciate from the heart. Uh, but that you know, that's just such an awesome group, I think, to once you have that connection and that trust, and once people know your character, they want to be, they want to see you succeed, they want to help you. So uh John, John is great. Shout out to John.
SPEAKER_02Shout out to John. Well, Shindi, I wish we had more time. I would love to keep going. But um who are watching this, maybe they want to come to Hustle Hour, maybe they need an adjustment, maybe they've been dealing with back or neck pain and they like I don't want to just take a bunch more Tylenol. Uh, maybe I go see Spindy. But how can uh what kind of connections are you looking for? One, and then how can people get a hold of you?
SPEAKER_01Um would love to help. Thank you for that. Um so the easiest way to get a hold of us, obviously, if you want to check out the website and see if you're comfortable with what we do, it's just reconnectkyro.com. Um, our office number is gonna be 970-775-2903. Um and then if you have personal questions, you don't feel comfortable reaching out to the office, just feel free to text me or call my cell phone 860-967-2675. Um and as far as connections, you know, just uh I'll just give it a general shout out. If you have thought about trying chiropractic, if you have been afraid of chiropractic, you might not just have found the right one. There's just a lot of different types of techniques and things like that. Because I meet a lot of people that just have seen a bunch of social media videos and are scared of it. That's not really what chiropractic is. It's just when you're gentle and specific, you don't get a lot of views on social media. Right. So they do those crazy things. Um, so just give chiropractic an opportunity um before you kind of escalate into something more serious as far as surgeries or things like that. Just give it a chance, give it a try. If you're not comfortable, you don't have to follow through with what you know your chiropractor is recommending. It's just give it a chance. It will change your life, I promise. Change mine.
SPEAKER_02So right on and uh follow the Facebook group for the next hustle hours.
SPEAKER_01Hustle hour, yeah. It's just hustle hour. It says no-co men's networking. Um, there's about 130 guys on there, awesome guys. Feel free to post and shout out what you want on there. But once a month, I'll create the event. It'll be posted on there. It's a free event open to all guys. Um, come on out. There's always one or two girls a message like saying, Can I go? No. Uh no. No cooties, guys only. Um, but it's a great group, great group of guys. Um, we have a, you know, on average, uh, a good turnout. So come on out. We'd be happy to have you and make some connections and help you grow. Right on.
