The very first Scooter’s Coffee location was known as “Scooter’s Java Express.” Don and Linda Eckles named it “Scooter’s” after reviewing a list of options including “Scooter.” The name fit well with our mission to keep customers happy by helping them “scoot in and scoot out” quickly.

Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at the roasting process in the early days. The operation looks quite different today, but did you know that we only roast from the top 10% of specialty coffee beans in the world? From the beginning, quality has always been front of mind.

Have you tried something new lately? Challenge yourself to grow this year by sharing your goals with others!

Learn a new skill

Have you wanted to take a virtual cooking class, try out a new crafting skill, or take an e-course on a topic you love? Maximize your potential by trying something brand new to you! You’ll never know what’s around the corner until you take the first step.

Move your body

We all have different abilities and only you know what you’re capable of! Commit to moving your body in any way you are able by taking an online dance class from the comfort of your living room, or simply committing to get up from your desk once an hour to remain active throughout the workday. Stretch yourself physically or mentally, only you know what you need the most.

Try a new recipe

Whether you’re an amateur cook or the next Top Chef, the potential is there to unlock new possibilities in your home kitchen. Make a fun meal for a friend or try that recipe from Pinterest you’ve been dreaming

Living online? You’re not alone! Here are five ways to unplug and connect in meaningful ways this year.

1. Try a digital detox
Start by taking one hour a day away from your phone, computer or tablet. Increase your time away from there.

2. Take it outside

3. Make space
Out of sight, out of mind definitely applies when it comes to our devices! Plug yours in to charge as far away as possible in your home and you won’t think about checking it as often.

4. Habit swap
If you’re used to scrolling on your phone before bed, try something new! Reading a book or listening to soft music, writing in a journal, or meditation are all great ways to unwind without your devices.

5. Be mindful of your reasons
Make a list of things that are important to you, and how technology can impact those things, both positively and negatively. Be mindful of your own intentions behind changing
