McDonald's Completes Move Across Manchester, Honors Pond Elementary
The newly-built McDonald's in Ellisville, which replaces the restaurant's previous neighboring location, officially opened on Thursday. Pond Elementary got a McTreat during it.
The 'golden arches' of a famous fast-food chain officially crossed Manchester Road on Thursday, with a royal welcome from Ellisville's surrounding business community.
The new McDonald's, which is located on the northwest corner of Clarkson and Manchester roads in Ellisville, replaces an older location that was just south of Manchester.
At the restaurant's official opening and ribbon-cutting, owners John and Michelle Banducci were welcomed by the West County Chamber of Commerce. Also present were representatives of of Wildwood, which was the recipient of a $200 donation made on behalf of McDonald's.
The Pond staff said they were chosen due to participating in McTeacher's Nights with that McDonald's team, usually one in the fall and one in the spring. McTeacher's Nights are specified evenings during which school-related families can earn extra funds for their schools due to a percentage of the sales from the evening being donated by McDonald's directly to the school.
