Twisters at 305A 18th St North is in the process adding new management and direction. Darren Darvill the owner of Resurrection Auto Detailing on 1st Street North has come to terms with local owners Frank and Gerri Iwasiuk to take over and steer the ship so to speak. Darvill told BDNMB.CA that some changes will happen in and outside but more lighting and visibility plus outside seating. Question I like to ask business owners is WHY DO THIS?   Darren said he was a customer 17 years ago and thought with his current health situation that this wouldn’t be as difficult physically that perhaps this is a natural fit to split his time between both companies. Frank and Darren said improved social media presence and outside lighting will make Twisters once again a place where families can spend time and enjoy supporting a locally owned and operated company. Twisters will re open March 26th to the public. https://www.facebook.com/Twistersbrandon
