 Bristow Shopping Center Grand Opening

October 13, 2007, Bristow VA ~ Bristow Shopping Center was officially opened today. The grand opening entertainment was provided by Rappaport Companies, a retail developer and management specializing in shopping center management, leasing, and development. Sabra Flaherty, DJ provided the music and entertainment. Parents and children participated in a treasure hunt wherein merchants in pre-designated areas stamped the treasure map and treasure hunters were eligible for door prizes.

 

Among the merchants that recently opened for business were:

Bristow Barbers
Bear Mill/Pickle Bob's
BB&T Bank
California Tortilla
Mattress Discounters
Pizza Hut
Remax Realtors
Subway Sandwiches
Wireless Jungle (AT&T Wireless)

Augustine Renz, Manager of California Tortilla provided visitors a sampling and taste test of the variety of dishes to the general public and free of charge. Unfortunately due to amount of traffic generated by the free publicity; the food and beverage ran out before the afternoon crowd managed to sample the different tortilla dishes. According to Augustine, he estimated the restaurant probably spent $3,000 in providing free meal to the general public. The Nokesville Fire House No. 25 was also on hand to support in the grand opening and the general public.
