Upcoming summer events downtown, check it out!

See the new, improved stores in downtown Kitchener. There's a new energy here, and it's starting to catch on to all those suburbanites who had given up on downtown.
The Kaufman lofts are now open, and almost all the residents have moved in. Numerous other residential areas are being presently renovated, and newly built, including the hotly anticipated Centre Block condos, to be officially built within the next 3-5 years.
The school of Pharmacy is slated for next fall to spring to be completed with as much as 1-2000 new students spilling into downtown.
The brand new much expanded Shoppers Drug Mart is NOW OPEN at King and College St., just a block from our store! In addition to a huge selection of pharmaceutical supplies and merchandise, it houses a small grocery section for downtown residents and workers.
David's Gourmet is open across the street, and provides wonderful international and quality food and deli selections.
A new fancy cafe has opened on Gaukel street renovated where the Big City Donut shop used to be.
A new Crabby Joe's is slated to open at King and Frederick.

So, the signs are there, and it's only going to get better. So get off yer duff and come shop downtown, and support your Canadian small business entrepeneurs (like me) instead of subsidizing those third-world sweatshop imports found at all box-store malls! (wow, we're getting pretty political here, maybe Michael Moore can do a story on this!)"
