They're back! If you get an email offering you a copy of the Expo email list, it's SPAM. Delete from your system! As a Chamber Member, if you ever need a copy of our Membership list, just let us know. It's one of your Member benefits provided by the Chamber (not some random).

Stop in and give Rookies a little love this week!

First off I just want to thank everyone for their support after the crappy events of yesterday -- emails, texts, IMs, online posts. Yes, some people suck, but I was also reminded of all the great people that I'm surrounded by. Today? It's back to business! I'll be in the store 10-1, Jim 1-5.
