As our time at the pop-up shop draws to a close, we find ourselves reflecting on the incredible journey we've embarked upon and the heart-warming experiences we've shared with our local community. From the moment we set foot in this venture, uncertainty surrounded us, given the fierce competition posed by Camberley's sports retail giants. However, what followed exceeded our wildest expectations as we were embraced by an outpouring of love and support, making each day an exciting chapter in our story.



From the very first day, the warmth and acceptance we received from the community were nothing short of overwhelming. Camberley, with its well-established sports emporiums, could have posed a daunting challenge. But, against all odds, the people of this wonderful town extended their arms to us. The first day felt like a warm embrace that set the tone for the days to come.



Our shelves, stocked with our best-curated collections, found homes faster than we could anticipate. In fact, the response was so remarkable that we had to restock our popular collections not once, not twice, but a staggering three times! The enthusiasm with which these collections were received spoke volumes about the synergy between our offerings and the tastes of the community.



An integral part of our pop-up shop journey was the presence of our beloved mascot, Roary. This charming character brought joy and excitement beyond the shop walls, venturing into safari trails and car shows. Roary became more than just a mascot; he became a friend to many, distributing prizes and capturing the hearts of fans who couldn't resist a selfie with our charismatic ambassador.



As our community grew, so did our team. Two incredible individuals, Samuel and Gabby, joined our staff, becoming familiar faces to those who were frequently in our store. Their dedication and hard work added to the vibrant atmosphere that made our shop a hub of activity and positive energy.



Reflecting on our journey wouldn't be complete without expressing our heartfelt appreciation to those who made it all possible. The support extended to us by The Square, our fellow store owners, and our ever-welcoming community has been invaluable, it enriched our experience and reinforced the sense of unity that defines local businesses.



To every person who walked through our doors, whether as a customer, a well-wisher, or simply someone who said hello, we owe our deepest thank you. Your presence, your purchases, and your interactions have shaped the course of our pop-up shop journey in ways we could have never foreseen. You've reminded us that at the heart of every successful venture is a community that believes in it.



As we say goodbye to our pop-up shop, we do so with a sense of accomplishment and anticipation. While this chapter may be closing, it's not the end of our story. Keep an eye on what's to come, as the legacy we've built and the connections we've fostered will undoubtedly lay the foundation for our next exciting endeavour. Stay tuned, because the best is yet to come!
