Dick’s Sporting Goods will celebrate the opening of six new stores April 21 through Sunday, April 23 in various locations across the country including Colorado, Missouri, New York and Texas. These openings will bring the retailer’s total, national store count for the chain to 692 locations.
“We look forward to celebrating the grand opening of six new stores in four different states,” said Lauren Hobart, executive vice president and chief consumer and digital officer of Dick’s Sporting Goods. “Having an expanded presence in these cities will allow us to better-serve the athletes and outdoor enthusiasts who live there. We hope these communities join us for the celebrations that we have planned.”
Dick’s has brought more than 375 jobs to these markets through the hiring of full-time, part-time and temporary associates for the stores.
Customers will receive the chance to win prizes throughout the weekend and meet special guests such as New York Safety Landon Collins, New York Running Back Paul Perkins, former Houston wide receiver Andre Johnson, former Houston forward Robert Horry, Denver defensive lineman Derek Wolfe and former Colorado outfielder Dante Bichette.
