The Move UPDATE - 2065 Main St, Three Rivers I haven’t gotten to everyone who has offered to help, but I have been taking people up on offers as I am

coordinating schedules and projects I need to work on as well as not overwhelm myself with too much help all at once. Please keep offering and having patience with me through this process. I have given my notice to vacate

the current location and am trying very hard to be in and operational at 2065 Main Street, Three Rivers, MA by March (date purposely not given because I honestly don’t have an exact one yet). Starting the end of February,

beginning of March, please call the store before venturing out so you know which location to go to. Those that are taking classes, we will make sure you know where to go when my Mom does the reminder calls. Thank you

again for all of your support and patience! Stop in while we are still on Park Street and see what is in the yellow

sticker sale and/or MUST GO sale as I start moving more to the new location.
