SNOWSHOE, W.Va. — It took two years, a lot of phone calls and emails, but through persistence and dedication the residents of Snowshoe now have their own U.S. Postal Service Cluster Box Unit (CBU).
Last Saturday, residents, members of the Snowshoe Resort Community District and Senator Joe Manchin’s representative Alex Hewitt gathered at the CBU – located on Rescue Road behind Old Spruce Brewing – to officially open the CBU for business.
SRCD district manager Lisa Cutlip explained how the CBU became a reality.
“First and foremost, you need to congratulate yourself – the community,” she said. “You saw the need.
