Cup of Love set to open with new owners

Cup of Love coffee drinks stand, located at 2020 N. Fourth St., is opening with new owners, husband and wife Andy and Jolene Luebke, of Otis Orchards, Wash.

They are leasing 350 square feet of space next to the Fourth Street Beverage Shack.

They will sell coffee drinks, tea, and breakfast foods such as pastries and bagels, Andy Luebke said.

The grand opening is Oct. 11. He said the previous coffee vendor there closed early this year.

He said they will be offering free coffee drinks and pastries through the grand opening.

He got laid off last year and his wife wanted to leave her job and join him in the new endeavour. He said they have not owned a business before.

"We found the place on Craigslist," he said.
