Congratulations to Zachary and Michelle Carte who opened a Play It Again
Sports in Parkersburg, WV, on Thursday, July 23. Zach and Michelle did
a great job of spreading the word about their new store, and it paid off
with plenty of shoppers on opening day. In addition to customers, the
Carte’s had visits by chamber of commerce members, the mayor of
Parkersburg and even the deputy governor of West Virginia.
But their first customer of the day was a 10-year-old boy who had saved
all of his money earned by doing chores to purchase one of the door-buster
Easton bats he had seen during the store’s open-to-buy period. He
was a very happy customer indeed!
