✨Shoutout to Mayra for demonstrating the Yuma Way! 🎉

🙌She went above and beyond to help a customer plan a special 50th birthday celebration at the Yuma Civic Center — answering every question and personally calling ahead to confirm the smallest details.

👏Thanks to her and the Civic Center’s team, the event ran smoothly, the food was perfectly timed and kept fully stocked, and the celebration was a huge success!

🥳Way to go Mayra! We appreciate your professionalism and getting things done! 🫶
