But Kyle Flanagan, owner of the Augusta location, didn’t let that stop him from giving back to his community this holiday season.

It’s always cool to see the reaction on people’s faces when they see it at the end,” said Flanagan.This year, Flanagan and his team were touched by Matt Reddings’ story. Reddings is a local combat-wounded Army veteran. Due to his injuries, it can be difficult to decorate for the holidays.
