Good morning, Mid-Michigan! I’m sitting at the kids’ table here at the Fretail Store in the Lansing Mall, talking with Shekina Mitchell about what’s next for the store.
I’ve had the chance to speak with some of the customers to hear firsthand how the closure is affecting neighbors.
They told me what the store has meant to them, and I’m also catching up with the operating partners who’ve worked to keep it running and what they plan moving forward.
