SUMMARY:Ribbon Cutting: Chicken Salad Chick
DESCRIPTION:Stacy Brown has always been on a quest to find the perfect chicken salad. One day she had an epiphany: Everyone’s idea of the perfect chicken salad is completely different! The stay-at-home mom set to work perfecting her own recipe\, recruiting her family and neighbors to taste-test\, before arriving at the one. \nOnce Stacy had the chicken salad that made her family and friends say “mmm\, yes ma’am\,” she started dropping off samples of her creation in teachers’ lounges and hair salons\, and then began selling door-to-door. Orders poured in; Chicken Salad Chick was born. One day Stacy received a call from Stan with the Lee County Health Department\, who told her the home business was illegal. With her chicken salad still in high demand\, Stacy and her husband\, Kevin Brown\, were motivated to open up a carry-out only\, a humble yet honest-to-goodness restaurant where they could spread joy\, enrich lives\, and serve others. The rest\, as they say\, is history.

SUMMARY:Ribbon Cutting: NuvoDesk
DESCRIPTION:When our CEO envisioned NuvoDesk\, he saw a space where the next generation of entrepreneurs and businesses would be nurtured and flourish. Upon NuvoDesk’s launch\, it will be Arlington’s largest and most contemporary space for coworking. \nCoworking is a valuable alternative for entrepreneurs and startups who want to save money and get work done. Using your bedroom or garage as an office can work\, but what happens when you need a quiet spot? What if you need to meet with a client? Coworking can let you put your best foot forward and help you get ready for the next level. \nNuvoDesk aims to provide an atmosphere where you can work quietly\, or you can collaborate with teams of others. While you’re here\, you can network with other entrepreneurs and startups\, and you’ll be surprised what you can learn from one another. We hope to see you at our ribbon cutting and Grand Opening event from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.

Less stall\, more ball is how we describe it: a fast-paced game with fewer play stoppages. We’ve made timing changes\, common-sense rules changes\, and created five gameplay innovations that will raise the excitement level and minimize the downtime.\nWe’re staying true to the foundations of football. With input from our coaches\, players and fans\, we’re creating a game that is totally familiar – 11 on 11\, 100-yard football – with a few twists.\nWhere are the XFL teams and what are their names?\nOur league is divided into two four-team divisions: East and West.
