WSS and Mayor Suzanne de Leon to Celebrate New Balcones Heights Store Opening with Ribbon Cutting

 
SAN ANTONIO - Feb. 20, 2024 - PRLog -- WHAT: Join us at the ribbon-cutting ceremony for WSS, your new Neighborhood store in Balcones Heights, as we celebrate the opening of our 8th location in San Antonio, Texas. This event, scheduled for Monday, February 26, 2024, represents a pivotal moment in WSS's continued expansion and highlights our unwavering commitment to supporting inner-city neighborhoods.

Located at 4522 Fredericksburg Rd, Balcones Heights, San Antonio, Texas, the new store features a wide selection of footwear, apparel, and accessories from leading athletic-lifestyle brands, including Nike, Jordan, adidas, Puma, and exclusive brand Eurostar. This diverse range caters to the varied needs and preferences of our community, ensuring there's something for everyone.

WSS prides itself on being a community-centric retailer, a commitment reflected in our hiring practices. All store managers are recruited from the local Balcones Heights area, and over 90% of our full-time and part-time employees are recruited from neighboring communities. This approach not only nurtures local talent but also strengthens the bonds within our community, laying the foundation for a thriving local economy.

This celebration will not only introduce the new WSS store but also emphasize our dedication to making a positive impact on the community. In support of youth sports initiatives, WSS Cares! is donating $5,000 to SPORTI, a local non-profit organization committed to transforming children's lives through soccer programs in a family-oriented environment.

This grand opening and our partnership with SPORTI underscore WSS Cares! mission to not only be a leading retailer in the athletic lifestyle footwear industry but also a catalyst for community development and engagement.
