I'm not sure I should have read the last few posts they are making me feel yuckky.

no mock cussing please.

I would recommend two shots, of brain bleach. Much more effective.

[Henricus]

At the risk of reviving the more recent and disturbing path of this thread...has Cabelas announced an actual opening day yet?

[BillM]

Don't think so.

[kickingfrog]

FWIW? They are doing interviews this weekend.

[gaspumper]

They done some interviews 2 weeks ago also.

[kickingfrog]

Someone who was interviewed today said they would be told by May 16th and that their training would start on May24th. I would think that would mean a mid-late June opening, or certainly Canada Day.

[misfish]

Well the lights are on. I tried to walk up, but got stopped. LOL

 

I asked opening date. No comment.

[kickingfrog]

I would have said the same thing to someone with a bruins hat.

 

My potential insider hasn't heard anything yet either.

 

 

I'm thinking near Canada Day.

[lookinforwalleye]

My insider says early July for the grand opening.

[Fisherman]

Maybe have to ask one that got hired last week.

Cabela’s Canada Announces Opening Date of Barrie, Ontario Store

Posted on 5/28/2014 12:23:35 PM

SIDNEY, Neb. (May 27, 2014) – Cabela’s Canada will celebrate the official grand opening of its new Barrie, Ontario store at 11 a.m. Thursday, July 10. A ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by Cabela’s executives and special guests will begin at 10:45 a.m.

 

Opening day will kick off a weekend-long celebration highlighted by special appearances, family events, giveaways and more.

 

The 70,000-square-foot store – Cabela’s first Ontario location – will be located near the intersection of Highway 400 and Mapleview Drive in the Park Place Shopping Centre. It is expected to employ approximately 200 full time and part time employees.

 

The building’s exterior will reflect Cabela’s popular store model with log construction, stonework, wood siding and metal roofing. A large glass storefront will allow customers to view much of the store’s interior as they approach the building.

 

The inside will feature the company’s next-generation layout designed to surround customers in an outdoor experience, including museum-quality wildlife displays and a large mountain replica. In addition to thousands of quality outdoor products, the store also will feature an indoor archery range and archery tech room, Bargain Cave and Fudge Shop.

[Nipfisher]

Fudge????? Right on. I'm going for sure now.

[Carp]

Exited about Cabelas coming to Barrie.

I'm hoping the competition for business with Bass Pro, Sail, etc. means lower prices for all.

Downside is mom and pop shops will suffer.
