Firsts

Just like we do with our children, I have been making notes of Black Squirrel’s milestones or “firsts.” Some are interesting enough to share with you.

First Customers: Mark Tuttle and Tim Cassidy both of Pelham were my first true appointment customers on September 12, 2007. They (and their wives) have continued to support Black Squirrel – and for that, I am very grateful.

First Award: When Black Squirrel Outfitters was named Best of Westchester in 2008, it came as a huge surprise. When Black Squirrel was recognized again in 2009 we were true participants and attended the 2009 Best of Westchester® Party. It was lots of fun, and we found ourselves in good company.

First Fashion Show: This past week Black Squirrel was fortunate enough to outfit nine models (three moms and three senior boys) at the Fordham Prep Fashion Show. Five hundred women watched the show, and again we found ourselves in good company with the likes of Brooks Brothers and Family Britches. The senior boys stole the show wearing their Black Squirrel outfits with attitude and style.

First Move: Black Squirrel moves this week into a larger retail space at 525 Fifth Avenue in Pelham. The atmosphere will be the same, but we will have more space to welcome you. To that end, join us for our opening weekend May 6, 7 & 8.

Who will be our FIRST CUSTOMER at our new location?
