Outdoors retail center is bulking up

A retail center housing mostly outdoors stores is taking shape in Roanoke County. Tractor Supply Co. opened last weekend. According to the retailer's Web site, Aug. 30 is the grand opening. So, look out for possible discounts and special giveaways that day.

Tractor Supply claims to be the largest retail farm and ranch store chain in the country, with 791 locations as of March. It's based in Tennessee.

Tractor Supply's Roanoke County store went up adjacent to Gander Mountain, which opened in April off Interstate 81, in the Hollins area.

Also, Camping World is slated for this center, though I don't yet know its opening date. Its Web site only states that the Roanoke County store is "Coming Soon."

Dean, No, there hasn't yet been news about potential restaurants near Gander Mountain. I know there's the possibility of at least one landing there, according to the site plan. I'll keep you posted!
