J’s Membership Club is Opening its 200th Club in Fayetteville

BJ’s Membership Club celebrates its 200th club
with the opening of its newest North Carolina location at 5200 Red Tip Road in
Fayetteville.  Like other BJ’s Clubs, the new club focuses on
serving individual consumers and families, placing greater emphasis on
satisfying consumer demands for value, selection, brands and convenience and
offering significant savings on groceries and general merchandise, including
premium consumer electronics and brand-name appliances.  Additionally, the
club will feature a fresh bakery, BJ’s Café, deli, optical services, rotisserie
chicken, tire center, gas station and Verizon Wireless Kiosk. 

In recognition of the new Club
opening, BJ’s will host Grand Opening Celebrations Friday, June 21, Saturday,
June 22, and Sunday, June 23.  Current Members
and the public are invited to sample a variety of foods and beverages, visit
with Kellogg’s Tony the Tiger and Toucan Sam, balloon artists and face painters. 
BJ’s will also give away reusable shopping bags while supplies last and
provide information about the club’s selection of organic and all-natural
foods.

Community Partnerships:

“An important part of our company is giving back, and BJ’s
takes great pride in being a good corporate citizen and supporting the
communities in which we live and work.” said Jerry Bullock general manager of
BJ’s in Fayetteville. “We take our responsibility to our new neighbors, who
make up this great city, very seriously and look forward to becoming part of
the fabric of Fayetteville.”

The new Club has partnered with the VanStory Hills
Elementary School as part of BJ’s Adopt-a-School program.  The school will
receive a $1,000 donation to enhance educational programs and curriculum
objectives, a shopping cart full of items from the school’s wish list valued at
$1,500 and a free Membership. 

Additionally BJ’s has joined with Feeding America to provide
wholesome and nutritious unsold food to food banks throughout the company’s
15-state footprint.  The Fayetteville Club will donate its unsold food to
the Second Harvest Food Bank of Southeast North Carolina, and to kick off the
relationship, BJ’s is presenting the food bank with a $2,500 donation. 

BJ’s also is providing $2,500 gift card to the USO of
Fayetteville to help support the Airport Travel Center, which every month
serves more than 3,000 troops and families who are leaving or arriving to the
area. Lastly, BJ’s is donating $2,500 to the Junior League of Fayetteville to
sponsor the League’s annual fundraiser -- the Holly Day Fair.  The funds
raised by the event supports the League’s child mental health programs.

 The Fayetteville Club joins eight other BJ’s Clubs
throughout North Carolina.  The Club is open Monday through Saturday, 9 am
- 10 pm and Sunday 9 am - 8 pm.
