Grand opening; The goal in sight

     Renshaw Music will open it's doors on September 14th.  This new music store at 5240 Duncan Rd. in Punta Gorda will house my shop, have very spacious rooms for private instruction, and a large retail space offering a good variety of musical products for band and orchestra.
     This is not a new business but an expansion of Renshaw Music into retail sales from a fixed location.  I suspect the thing I am going to most like about this new job description is the new relationships with the musical community of this area.  My roots are in public school teaching as I was a public school teacher for 23 years.  I have also been a church music director so I hope I can understand the needs of these very special people and offer excellent services to meet these needs.  There will be other places that sell the same products but I hope to set  my store apart from the rest by offering great service and some special products like tapestries and throws sometimes used to decorate pianos but of general interest to decorate a fine home.
     The day the lease was signed was a milestone but a couple of days ago when I printed up a stack of fliers with the September 14th opening date was another. I am now truly committed and am working very hard at many tasks but ready of not there is a date now when my dream of running a fine music store will come to pass.
