On April 1, 2019, Skyline Commercial Management Inc., a division of the Skyline Group of Companies, welcomed The Salvation Army to their new location at 1077 10th Street West in Owen Sound.
The Skyline owned property is a larger space for The Salvation Army’s Thrift Store which provides gently used items at reasonable prices, that generate proceeds that are invested back into local community programs.
“We are very excited to expand our Owen Sound Thrift Store and continue to develop a relationship with Skyline,” comments Major David Kennedy, Pastor of The Salvation Army Owen Sound Community Church. “Throughout this relocation and expansion, Skyline has been extremely accommodating to our needs and have provided us with the support to create a space that is welcoming to our community.”
