Sponsor of the Month -- Bob Gosselin
Bob Gosselin and his wife Carolyn are the
owner/operators of the two Chicken Salad Chick
restaurants here in Tallahassee. One of the original
five franchisees to sign on with the then unknown
concept which had only one location in Auburn,
Alabama, the Gosselins opened their Market St (#4)
location in February 2013. The Apalachee Parkway
(#34) store opened six years ago in May 2015. In
June the Gosselins will reach into South Georgia with
a brand new store in Thomasville (#217.)
Chicken Salad Chick offers a dozen different flavors
of this Southern staple. Whether you like your chicken
salad spicy, savory or traditional, we have a taste for
everyone. The menu also features sides like grape
salad, fresh fruit, mac n� cheese and a soup of the
day. Tallahassee locations are open Monday through Saturday 11 am � 6 pm.
Thomasville hours will be 10:30 am to 8pm. All stores are closed on Sunday.Sunrise: tallahasseesunriserotary.org District: rotary6940.org International: rotary.org
