We are unloading all of our unwanted goods. Its probably trash but maybe someone wants it? We will be practicing all the COVID guidelines. This is a parking lot sale so no drinks allowed on premise. Masks required, social distancing enforced, sanitizer provided, etc. We will do our best to disinfect goods sold — they have not been touched in 2.5 months though so they’re probably cool!
The need for blood donations continues! Asheville Outlets will host a blood donation drive in partnership with the American Red Cross, Friday, June 12, from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm between Famous Footwear and VF Factory Outlet.
Donors are asked to register in advance, by visiting RedCrossBlood.org/give and entering the sponsor code Ashevilleoutlets. The American Red Cross will establish additional safety guidelines to ensure all donors are socially distanced.
