We’re so grateful to the community for 5½ years of support, and as much as it pains us to say it: Cascadia Axe Co. will be closing by the end of August.
We’ve coached, cried, loved, and grown with you. We live, laugh, leagued with you. We’ve watched strangers become friends, and friends become extended family. We saw first dates, anniversaries, and weddings. We watched people make connections and forge friendships. Those things will never leave us.
After several back-to-back slow seasons, it’s become impossible to sustain things financially. As a first-time business owner, there were a lot of tough decisions I/we faced over the years and some things I wish I’d done differently. That’s the thing about hindsight, ya know? But even though this was incredibly hard and caught us off-guard, we couldn’t end this without saying goodbye.
So we’ll be hosting a Going Away party mid-August (announcement to follow), you’re invited to party with us one last time!
If you have gift cards, please come use them ASAP. Don’t wait until the end! We have full-facility rentals this month, and walk-ins may not be available. Reservations are best.
What happens next for us? Kyle will continue his new sharpening business, but Southern Oregon will be losing its axe throwing venue. As for me, I’ll figure it out.
Thank you for helping us launch during a pandemic; we’re going to miss being a staple in the axe throwing community, hosting tournaments and parties, supporting those who’ve supported us, taking the trailer to mobile events, donating to those who asked, coaching confidence, teaching people something new, and just enjoying this weird, unique sport.
Come by, share stories, grab a drink, snag merch, or just hang out these last few weeks with us. We love you, Rogue Valley. Y’all made an impact on us as much as we made an impact for some of you.
Maybe we’ll be back, somewhere down the road.
