Big Doings on Friday

Grand Opening! We'll be at our new Monday/Friday pick up spot this coming Friday, November 13, at Sycamore House on 11th Street SW (off West Main St.) near the entrance to the UVA Hospital parking lot.

The opening of the site is the result of some good work by Robert Thiele and Matthew Sach, co-presidents of Housestaff Council, John Bartelt, owner of Sycamore House, and our own Neal Halvorson-Taylor, who got everybody talking. The new pick-up will not only serve the 700+ UVA Hospital Residents, but students and folks who live in the area. The hard-working-no-time-for-shopping Residents have already placed over 50 orders to be picked-up at this new spot! We will have to be on our operational game....

As part of the celebration, many of our Relay stores will be on hand with free foodstuffs -- apples from Ronnie in the Valley, home-made bread from Belle Haven, wraps from Rev Soup-- and other whatnot, like Burt's Bees stuff from Rebecca's. Come on down anytime from 3 pm - 7 pm and check out what's doing. As Fat Albert once said, "If you're not careful, you might learn something."
