Rock Creek Outfitters Leases Space at Two North Shore
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 28, 2006--CS & Associates, an affiliate of Park Mills Properties 2, LLC, announces that it has now acquired the balance of the land needed to build Two North Shore, a 95,000 square foot mixed use project on Manufacturers Road near US 27, anchored by a new Greenlife Grocery store in the North Shore region of Chattanooga. Park Mills' managing partner, Steve Arnsdorff, announced that Rock Creek Outfitters, locally owned by Dawson Wheeler and Marvin Webb since 1986, has signed a lease to occupy approximately 9,000 square feet right next to the planned new Greenlife Grocery store (27,000 sq. ft.). Steve said "Rock Creek is the perfect compliment to Greenlife Grocery. Greenlife is the benchmark in natural and organic foods in this region and their success has been amazing. Both companies are strong regional businesses that have great business models and they help anchor the retail market in the North Shore area of Chattanooga. We are very bullish regarding residential growth in the immediate area of this development and with the property's regional location near Highway 27, these new stores will better serve their existing and future customers".

Update on Lula Lake Grant
Elsewhere on this blog we mentioned the grants given to the Lula Lake Land Trust by Rock Creek Outfitters, Chaco Sandals, and Patagonia to help replace a bridge that had been washed out by high waters last spring. Lula Lake just released this follow-up with a photograph:
Dawson Wheeler, owner of Rock Creek Outfitters, presented Adelaide Bratcher, Head of Development for the Lula Lake Land Trust, with checks from Patagonia and Chaco Sandals, two outdoor gear companies, as well as the locally-based Rock Creek Outfitters.
The grants came just in time to finish up the bridge that had been damaged by heavy rains last year. Speaking of the gifts, Mrs. Bratcher noted: “We were very fortunate to have Boy Scout Troop 191 help rebuild this bridge as part of an Eagle Scout Project. That and the generosity of Mr. Wheeler and his vendors are what help us continue to fund our ongoing maintenance needs and projects at the Lula Lake Land Trust."
