Shopping Center Revitalization

Two articles on this subject appeared in this week's
Villager showing the efforts that are being explored
and developed. The stores appear to be picking up
some more traffic already. In each newsletter we will
be featuring details about stores in the center and
how they provide you with unique services.
On the Web site, information on specials at the stores will also
be appearing. Check
it out. This issue features David ‘Nick’ Ransford,

Are you Interested in Saving the Lives of Dogs and Cats?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Montgomery County Commissioners are considering stopping the
funding and removing support from the animal shelter Adoption
Center program. Maggie Warner says we really need to let
them know that as residents of the county, this is an important
and valuable service that needs to survive. If you would
like to support this effort you can sign the petition
posted on the Web site and mail it, or give her a call.

Introducting David ‘Nick’ Ransford, Manager of The Beverage Shoppe
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Beverage Shoppe is one of the oldest stores in
the center having been there for at least 20 years as
far as anyone can remember. Nick is a Californian
originally from San Diego and it took him some time to
find Texas.
A resident of Grogan’s Mill, he is also the
leader of the shopping center's merchant's
association. He has worked for the Beverage Shoppe
since 2004. He loves his job and can usually be
found in the store.
He is knowledgeable about wines and spirits and will
gladly make recommendations to fit your needs. He
can special order for you, assist in planning a party
or make a special party basket. He has set up in the
store a rack of his choice ‘value priced’ wines. One
of them is the Barefoot label (merlot, cab and
chardonnay) which he sells at $2.99 The same wine
was being offered at the big supermarket in the mall
for $5.89
