FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE | Kansas City, Missouri, June 1, 2020
Bambou Salons & Spas is taking an opportunity to recognize the heroes in our community with the installation of a park bench gifted to the city of Overland Park. This park bench is dedicated to the first responders who serve as they battle the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“This is a small but hopefully lasting opportunity to recognize the incredible people who are sacrificing their own safety and comfort to protect our community” explains Sean Barnard, owner of the Bambou Salons & Spas brand, “We opened our first location in Downtown Overland Park in 2016 so we think it’s appropriate to make this gift here for people to enjoy and remember our healthcare heroes.”
Bambou Salons & Spas recently reopened following a COVID-19 related closure. The reopening included new sanitization standards and guest expectations. “We continue to do our part to operate a safe environment at each of our locations” says Barnard, “all of our Team Members are both Bambou Sanitization and BARBICIDE certified professionals.
The bench includes a brass plaque that represents what Bambou feels is important. “Our Core Values include a commitment to supporting local communities” says Salon Manager Burgandy Thomas, “we never forget our nurses, doctors, EMT’s, firefighters and police – but especially right now.”
President & CEO of the Overland Park Chamber of Commerce, Tracey Osborne Oltjen remarked, “Bambou has consistently been a good community partner and the bench will certainly serve as a visual reminder that we are all in this together and our first responders make our community stronger and safer.”
