First and foremost, we hope you had a wonderful Labor Day weekend and that your school year is off to a great start. We're writing today to share that, due to staffing shortages resulting from COVID-19, we've made the difficult decision to temporarily close our Houston location from Monday, September 13th through Saturday, September 18th. The store will reopen Monday, September 20th.
During this time, we will extend Free Shipping to school families on all online orders with code FALLFREESHIP. Although the store will not be open for walk-in shopping, we will have one staff member onsite during normal business hours to facilitate any order pickups for customers who have not yet collected their prepaid uniform orders.
Given the very low volume of foot traffic we've seen in the store since the start of the school year, we're confident that this temporary closure will not present too great an inconvenience for your school families. That said, we sincerely appreciate your continued patience during this especially challenging back-to-school season.
