Monday, 10 September 2012

Due to weather concerns, we've had to postpone our PARKING LOT SURFACING until Tuesday morning, Sept. 11. This will push the work farther into the week than we had hoped. Again, thank you for your patience!

Wednesday, 7 September 2012

We will be having our parking lot resurfaced next week. Only HALF of our parking lot will be available at a time. Entrances/exits will change each day. Please bear with us. Larger vehicles will likely need to use street parking. Watch for signs and staff directing traffic around the store. We're hoping that everything will be done by Tuesday night, but it's possible the work could continue into Wednesday. Thank you for your patience.
