With fall just around the corner, back to school shopping is probably on your mind. Make sure to support your local businesses as you get ready for the change of seasons and the start of a new school year! There are some great new places to check out...
If you have been on Lyndale Avenue lately, you may have noticed some activity. The El Burrito Cubano will be "spicing" things up soon at 4729, and a little further south, at 42nd, the coffee shop is also getting ready to open. Watch this Scoops column for all the details!
Next time you are on Fremont at the Vita Life pharmacy, stop in next door at 4149 and welcome the Cleaners on Fremont to the neighborhood or call them at 612-521-0260 for days and times of operation.
There's another new neighbor at 5140 Fremont Ave. The Richard Allen Math and Science Academy (RAMSA) has just opened its doors to students in grades 6-8. This new charter school has a unique focus and a mentor program to ensure their students are set up for success. To find out more about this new school or to enroll your child, contact them at 612-559-5200 or visit www.ramsaacademy.org.
