It shlows us te present the merchandise a lot more effectively." The new wing is now the borne for the sports and seasonal centre. Dunung the summer you'Il find items like lawn furniture and gardening supplies in addition te summer-related sports like baseball, golf and swimming. This time cf year the contente of the depiartment change te more appropriate items such -as snow rernoval equipment, hockey, sking, snowmobiling and liunting supplies. In the near- future the new quarters will also feature the departep=ent and. liristrnas decorating items.. Since the enlarged store can now handie more custemers, three additional checkout tounters have been added, and a few new employees were hired, bringing the staff size te about 80. Cadoret is very pleasè-*d winth the ýend result. He has special praise for Brian Barten Contractors, a local company that built the new. wing. The same contracter is resonsible for the Paspotauo elbp situated juetsout ofCanaianTire.
