Bring Trader Joe's to Winston Salem

We want a Trader Joes in Winston Salem, NC!!!!
To achieve this, we wrote a song and asked the passionate people of our town to sing it! On Saturday, July 24th, in spite of temperatures close to 100, over 100 people gathered and the results is in this video.The lyrics of the song were written by Susan Hartfield Morris and the music by Suzy McCalley.
Enjoy!
We long to see Hawaiian shirts
And hear your store bell ringing
Bring Good stuff to our neighborhood
And our city will be singing.

The City of Winston-Salem
Is where your next store needs to go
Our city is amazing
But we want a Trader Joe's

Your Five Layer Fiesta Dip
and white Cheddar Soy Crisps Rule
The Salty Sweet Trail Mix
and Mango Salsa makes us drool

The City of Winston-Salem
Is where your next store needs to go
Our city is amazing
But we want a Trader Joe's

No more trips to Cary, Charlotte,
Concord, Raleigh, Chapel Hill
We want TJ's in Winston
If we need to beg, we will.

Is where your next store needs to go

well looks like Greensboro will be the first city in the Triad to land Trader Joe's. This morning's news is reporting there is a realistic chance Trader Joe's will be a part of a retail development in Greensboro next to the Shops at Friendly Center.

I work at TJ's in Chicago; parents live in Chapel Hill. Right around the corner from the Trader Joe's there. We're expanding in the southeast...there's hope! Great video!

Having a Trader Joe's in W-S would make dealing with my daughter's allergy/food sensitivity issues so much better. Please come!
