After growing up in Cedar Rapids, Mayson moved to Nashville, Tennessee and spent the last few years exploring Music City. Tired of the hustle and bustle of the big city she decided to join her parents back in Elma and enjoy all the perks of small-town living. Dan and Mayson are excited to be the new owners of the the Blue Bird with their main focus on creating great food, a great atmosphere, and great memories with the great people of their hometown, all while preserving the history of the original Blue Bird.
