Company Shops Market to Hold Ground Breaking
On Sunday, November 14th, the Company Shops Market will be holding a ground breaking celebratory potluck from 2 pm - 6 pm. Those community members with special talents in various areas of performance are being asked to think about donating their skills as part of the events entertainment. The co-op is also asking that attendees bring goodies for an old-fashion bake sale. Proceeds from the sale will help buy outdoor furniture for the new greenspace that's being constructed. The kickoff celebration signifies the final stage in the co-op's journey to completion. With construction beginning, they hope to be open by Spring 2011. For more information about the event on November 14th, please contact Heather Bjork at Heather@CompanyShopsMarket.coop. |
