Vernon and Nikki own and operate Chesterton Brewery, a family restaurant, and Duneland Distillery, located in Chesterton. Vernon and Nikki are dancing because “the YMCA does so much for our community”. They are passionate about giving back to both veterans and first responders in need through their restaurants. They have allocated all the money raised through their dance to help provide free and subsidized memberships to both active-duty veterans and the family members of those in need.
