JCPenney Ribbon Cutting and Giving

The JCPenney at the Grand Traverse Mall in Garfield Township (Traverse City, MI) was the site of a celebration this morning as management and staff of the local store had a ribbon cutting for their newly remodeled story. Part of that celebration was a presentation of a $2,000 check from the store to the Grand Traverse Bay YMCA for after school activities and programs.
