At the end of October, the “smaller” Walmart opened at Northcross.

We know there are still issues concerning crime, traffic, truck routes and others.

Please let us know when you have a problem that needs to be addressed.

You are also free to contact the new store manager with issues: Scott Gray at 420-9669.

But we hope everyone who supported RG4N understands how amazing and rare our win is.
