The Cut Butchery’s Ribbon Cutting with the Mount Vernon Springfield Chamber of Commerce
Alexandria, VA – The Mount Vernon Springfield Chamber of Commerce fêted The Cut Butchery with a ceremonial grand opening and ribbon cutting on Friday, February 21.
Chamber President Holly Doughtery was joined by some of the Board of Directors, including Josefina Beck, Burke & Herbert Bank; Marissa Eyon, FASTSIGNS Springfield; and Anne Kenney and Dina Koch from The Dean Law Firm. Mount Vernon Supervisor Dan Storck and his Chief of Staff Christine Morin were also on hand with Officer Donna Shaw of the Mount Vernon District Police Station.
Dougherty opened the ceremony by thanking Alex Kilroy, owner of The Cut, for making his vision a reality. Dougherty said, “In this area of Mount Vernon, Fort Hunt Road feels like Main Street, and this shop fits in perfectly.” Josefina Beck then presented Kilroy with the official Chamber plaque for this store.
Supervisor Storck congratulated Kilroy for all the hard work and sweat equity he has already put in, adding that small businesses like this are what keep communities strong. “The Cut Butchery is really a cut above for this community,” said Storck.
Surrounded by the dignitaries with his wife and family, Kilroy then performed the ceremonial ribbon cutting, a welcome milestone after months of detailed planning and hard work.
