- Subject: End of Another Era - Schoolkids Records to close

Just got this message today. Sad, I've been buying records at
Schoolkids ever since I got my first turntable (back when it was in
the original Pepper's location.) - glenn
Schoolkids Records, Chapel Hill location, will be closing it's doors
in March, 2008. It may be coincidence or not....but after 33 1/3
years, this long playing music retail institution will be closed. All
Triangle retail business will be handled in the Raleigh location,
which is located at 2712-100 Hillsborough St., while it still
maintains a retail presence in Athens, Ga. The business climate for
music retail has changed so drastically since our beginnings, but so
has the concept of locally owned businesses. We are faced with many
more obstacles, that even 6 years ago were virtually not present. For
all those in the Triangle area, who have supported all the Schoolkids
Records location throughout the years and especially those in the
Chapel Hill area, we would like to extend our many thanks and kudos
for helping to keep this institution alive for so many years. We would
especially like to thank the University of North Carolina, the Cat's
Cradle, Local 506, WXYC, WXDU and The Merch, for their continuing
support of our Chapel Hill location through the years. Now as we begin
to flip the LP to side 2 of our existence, our goals have not changed
nor has our commitment. We just hope that music retail will always be
a part of your shopping experience, now and in the future.
