Thank you to everyone who helped make our South Bend member appreciation baseball night a great success, especially member Chris Watterson from store J966 who threw out the first pitch! It was an amazing evening with beautiful weather and we can't wait to come back again.

Update on store 957 in Noblesville:
Kroger is planning to open the store tomorrow morning at 9:00 a.m. They are calling associates tonight to see who is willing to come in and work. To be clear, this is strictly a voluntary basis.
If anyone does not feel they can make it into the store safely, they should not try and should stay home.
Kroger has announced this is the final week they use Retail Odyssey for DSD (Direct story delivery) work in stores.
