The coffee bar at The Torch 180 building was built in honor of Brooklyn Sky Pode, the beautiful young girl in the framed picture. While no longer physically with us, Brooklyn's memory, spirit and legacy will continue forever. The coffee bar allows for students to be trained in all areas of barista and customer service skills, as well as how to run the cash register. |
We are proud owners of the former library building in Fowlerville, Michigan, located at 131 Mill St., and have transformed it into a fully functioning restaurant and coffee shop open to the public! Having the restaurant allows students to gain real life, hands-on, experience in all staffing aspects of a restaurant: hostess, prep cook, customer service, money management, food ordering, proper sanitation and more. Once students successfully complete our program, we will then help them find gainful employment within their own communities, and be able to accept new students to begin the process again.
