Care & Share to break ground

— Groundbreaking for a new facility for the Care & Share operation in Gravette will be held this Saturday, Aug. 27, at the construction site at the intersection of 103 Huntington and Second Avenue SE.

Site preparation for the new facility is already underway but an official groundbreaking will be held at 10 a.m. Everyone is welcome and invited to attend.

Care & Share, the operation which provides assistance for individuals in the area, has operated a retail establishment on Main Street for many years. A second retail Specialty Shop was opened just east of the site of the new building about two years ago.

Combining the two operations at one location will provide more parking andimprove the ability of Care & Share to serve more efficiently.

Actual construction on the new metal building will begin very soon and, when completed, the Main Street operation will relocate.
