As Branson's Chick-Fil-A Store gets ready to reopen on Main Street, their General Manager talks about the project completion plus recent community outreach efforts.

Kevin Hutcheson, Branson Chick-Fil-A General Manager, says during a recent interview on KRZK's "Ozarks Now" program that while the restaurant was shutdown during the remodeling, employees continued to report to work but would deploy in the community to help local not-for-profits. Hutcheson said one of efforts was with Faith Community Health as they helped prepare the clinic for their move from their current location on Sixth Street to their new location on Branson Hills Parkway. Christian Action Ministries, Elevate Branson, and Salvation Army Branson were among other organizations that had assistance during this period.

Hutcheson says the drive-thru at Chick-Fil-A will reopen this morning at 10:30 and will remain open the rest of the week with the inside part of the restaurant scheduled to reopen next week.

The entire interview with Kevin Hutcheson can be seen on the Ozarks Now Facebook Page.
