Express settles into new location

The Red Oak Express office has opened in a new temporary location, back in the square for the first time since 1961. On May 15, strong winds tore off a portion of the roof of the Red Oak Express office, which resulted in water damage all through the main office portion of the building. For the time being, The Express has opened right on the Red Oak downtown square at 222 E. Coolbaugh, with regular Monday-Friday hours of 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Also, for those wondering, Scoop will be moving into the new location and will return to greeting customers in her own special way soon.
