Ring's Closure

Ring is scheduled to close to the public on Saturday, September 5th. Here are the latest updates and instructions:

All items customers place on hold will continue to arrive at Ring through Friday, September 4th. After that, all items will be directed to HIL. Any items remaining on Ring's shelves will be taken to HIL on September 5th.

If any customers inquire about the closure, tell them that Sept 5th is the target date, but that it may change. Also, tell them that the target date for reopening is June 2010, but that may also change. There have been a couple of customers request more details. If they do, please direct them to me. If I am not available, please take their contact information and give to me. I will respond to them ASAP.

As soon as I know, I will inform everyone where they will be assigned to work during Ring's closure.

Also, we will being taking items down, packing them and sending them off for storage as needed.

As always, thanks for your hard work, patience and flexibility during this transition period. My goal is to make it as smooth as possible for everyone!!

Ring's Closure

If you look at the following link, you can see that Ring is slated for closure on August 1st, 2009. Please note: This does not mean that staff will be reassigned immediately after this date. If is highly possible that we will remain at Ring for a week to two weeks to pack the facility and to wrap up last minute issues. Also, be aware that the construction timeline may change.

I will keep all of you posted as time progresses as to when/how the closing will proceed and what any future job assignments will be.
