Pleasanton Pride Is Front And Center With This Face Mask

PLEASANTON, CA — In 2020, a face mask has become a statement piece.

Are you the bold type who rocks a patterned mask — a fashion statement in its own right? Or do you opt for the timeless, sophisticated goes-with-everything black mask?

Now you can show off your Pleasanton pride with a face mask featuring a vintage map of the city, sold by downtown store Clover Creek. Livermore, Sunol and Dublin can also be spotted on the mask.

"I just thought it'd be kind of cute," said owner Alexis Gass.

Clover Creek has carved out a niche with its Pleasanton memorabilia over the past 25 years, she said. With so many people moving in and out, the store has found a loyal base of customers in those looking to take a piece of P-Town with them as they head into their next chapter. It's also a favorite spot of realtors looking to welcome clients to the city.

Pleasanton is a place worth remembering.

"It's truly a good community, that's for sure," she said.

Gass said she's frequently had people stop by to check on her, in hopes of supporting the store. Even a pandemic can't keep Pleasanton down.

"We truly appreciate all the support we're getting from our customers," she said. "It's just such an unusual time."

Already prepared with an arsenal of masks? If you like the vintage map print, you're in luck — a matching pillow is for sale, Gass said.
